"Orphan line" into history
Panzhihua people travel has always been a problem. Panzhihua Airport, the attendance has been good. But long-term only Panzhihua - Chengdu routes, is a local big regret.
Panzhihua Airport and the joint efforts of the Sichuan Airlines, opened May 9 Panzhihua - Beijing, Panzhihua - Chongqing route, coupled with previous Panzhihua - Chengdu route, and now has three daily flights out of Hong Kong as many as hundreds of people.
"Chengdu route is always very good and traffic do not have to worry about, now is the growth of Chongqing, the largest airline, low fares, offers more, almost 100% attendance, and also attract other surrounding areas in Xichang visitors to come. "party in charge of Panzhihua Airport Director Wu Bin said, laughing.
Chongqing has opened routes through Panzhihua, but did not last long, August 2008, which produced 50 by the Brazilian small plane skidded off the runway at the Nanning Airport, the National Civil Aviation Authority ordered an emergency, high-altitude airports fly a small plane, together with Airlines at that time the Sichuan earthquake relief supplies to protect the transport capacity and the Beijing Olympic Games, which grounded on this route.
Wu Bin, admits: "At that time, our customer base in Chongqing route is not much confidence in the market, Ting Jiuting it! But now is different, Panzhihua Chongqing, there is no direct train, passengers travel to Chengdu diverted, if more convenient direct flights to Chongqing fast. "
Chongqing is not only a recovery route, opened in Beijing route, Panzhihua Airport is also a thoughtful and made many prior research. Many visitors a week to fly to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other cities two to three times a sufficient source, to open routes to the airport's determination to make up. "We need the passenger's route, decided to extend routes, non-stop Beijing." Panzhihua Airport Marketing Manager Li Ling introduced at the beginning, attendance Beijing route until 40 to 50 people, but now gradually increase, the next step Panzhihua Airport also To increase the route for the creation of more boutique route.
"This investment not only for Panzhihua bring a good image and high efficiency, but also for Panzhihua who travel to provide more options to alleviate the people's hard to play a positive role in travel." Panzhihua Airport official says.
"High" when is
While an increase of flights should appreciate, but high fares still a lot of people stay away. Major cities in the country air has become a big discount in the context of normal, and out of Panzhihua's ticket is still high. Flights from Chengdu, Panzhihua price, much higher than the number of provincial cities of Chengdu flight fare. This route business, government service and from the frequent, many people want to lower the fares again, "the province to fly, but the price to pay to fly outside the province, we are frequently out of Panzhihua, I really want to lower access costs." One Bit name Miss Long Di told reporters.
Wu Bin also feel very helpless on this, he told reporters, Panzhihua Airport as a high altitude airport, imposing a two-pilot flight system, the transportation costs. More informed sources, the plateau of private aviation is not qualified to enter the airport, not the introduction of competition, leading to the fare has been endemic.

Not only that, on May 31, Panzhihua Airport has passed the four Chuanlan Panzhihua Electric Lightning Protection Co., Ltd. all branches of the airport equipment, facilities, buildings and structures of the mine detection, as the rainy season this year, the safe operation of the airport lay a solid foundation, "Now that the airport more secure, more confident passengers flying." Wu Bin told reporters.
