Shanghai's airports see growth during Dragon Boat Festival
Shanghai's two airports reported double-digit growth year-on-year in the number of inbound and outbound passengers during the three-day-long Dragon Boat Festival ending Monday, according to the Shanghai Airport (Group) Co Ltd.
In the holiday, the Shanghai Pudong International Airport and the Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport handled more than 1.04 million passenger trips, with the number of inbound and outbound passengers surging 16.6 percent year-on-year to reach 338,000, the Shanghai Airport (Group) said on Tuesday.
A total of some 6,000 aircraft landed or took off at Shanghai Pudong International Airport and Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport between May 31 and June 2.
As part of the city's efforts to attract more inbound travelers, the airports are offering all-around services including wireless Internet access, currency exchange, telephone cards and transportation cards for purchase. The three round-the-clock one-stop service stations have been operational at the two airports to provide assistance like communication, payment, tourism and transportation to expatriates upon their arrival in Shanghai.
The Shanghai Airport (Group) also provides first-time air travelers, senior passengers, families with children and passengers with pets with considerate and convenient services to enhance passengers' air travel experience.
