Release time:Apr 13, 2024 20:20 PM

Recently, multiple travel platforms have received notifications from airlines that starting from June 5th, the fuel surcharge prices for domestic air tickets in China will be lowered again. Industry insiders believe that this downgrade will have a positive impact on Dragon Boat Festival and summer travel. Have you decided where to go for Dragon Boat Festival?

Third downward adjustment within the year

It is understood that after the reduction of fuel surcharges for flight tickets, the fuel surcharges for adult passengers on flights of 800 kilometers and below will be reduced from 30 yuan to 20 yuan, and the fuel surcharges for flights of 800 kilometers and above will be reduced from 60 yuan to 30 yuan. That is to say, the flight segments below 800 kilometers and above 800 kilometers have decreased by 33.33% and 50% respectively.

What is fuel surcharge? It is reported that aviation fuel surcharge is an additional fee charged by shipping companies to reflect changes in fuel prices. "There is a pricing formula for fuel surcharges, which is calculated based on international oil prices. International oil prices only start to charge when they reach 5000 yuan, and fuel surcharges will follow the rise and fall of international oil prices," said Lin Zhijie, a civil aviation industry insider, in an interview with China News Service.

This is the third price drop in 2023. It is reported that the fuel surcharge was previously lowered twice on January 5th and April 5th, and the current price has dropped by more than half compared to the beginning of the year.

After the reduction of fuel surcharges, airfare expenses will be cheaper. "It can be seen that the reduction in surcharges, especially for routes over 800 kilometers, has significantly reduced prices, which is still quite 'felt' for passengers. It is believed that it can to some extent stimulate passengers' travel during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday and summer vacation." Lin Zhijie analyzed.

"Since the beginning of this year, the tourism industry has continued to recover and improve, and since then, domestic air ticket fuel surcharges have been continuously lowered, which will save some costs for users' travel and bring new benefits to the recovering domestic tourism industry. As the Dragon Boat Festival approaches, user travel is expected to continue to explode, which is beneficial for users' holiday travel," said the relevant person in charge of Tongcheng Research Institute.

Dragon Boat Festival tickets are 20% cheaper than May Day tickets

The Dragon Boat Festival holiday in 2023 will be from June 22nd to 24th. Although there is still more than half a month left before the small holiday, the ticket prices for some popular tourist destinations have increased.

On the 4th, Zhongxin Jingwei found through the Qunar platform that the lowest price for air tickets from Beijing to Chengdu from June 10th to 20th ranges from 318 yuan to 442 yuan; On the 21st, the lowest price on the day before the Dragon Boat Festival rose to 600 yuan, an increase of 35.75% from the lowest price on the 20th; The highest ticket price on the 21st is 2933 yuan. The ticket price from the 22nd to the 24th is between 431 yuan and 2720 yuan. The lowest price of air tickets from Beijing to Xi'an also reached its peak on June 21st, more than twice the lower price of the 13th of the month.

Screenshots of the lowest airfare prices from Beijing to Chengdu and Xi'an. Industry insiders say that due to travel patterns, the airfare prices for the day before the holiday are usually higher. "Air travel often has long distances and travel time, and passengers often travel on the first day or the day before a small or long holiday, resulting in relatively high ticket prices for these two days. However, the number of passengers on the second and third days of the holiday is relatively small," said a tourism platform staff member.

According to Ctrip data, the average ticket price for the first half of June was 805 yuan, an increase of 12.6% compared to 2019; In the second half of the month, due to the approaching summer vacation and the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, the current average price has reached 1012 yuan, an increase of 29% compared to 2019. At the same time, the upcoming summer order volume has also increased comprehensively: currently, the summer order volume in 2023 has exceeded the same period in 2019. According to the relevant person in charge of Ctrip, the order volume of team games has increased by more than 10 times year-on-year since March; The upcoming peak summer travel season has seen a year-on-year increase of over 20 times in order volume.

However, compared to the May Day holiday, the current ticket prices during the Dragon Boat Festival period are significantly cheaper. According to Qunar data, the average ticket price during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday in China has decreased by 20% compared to the May Day holiday period.

Lin Zhijie stated that the current recovery of China's domestic civil aviation market is relatively good. "The domestic flight volume in China has recovered to 120% of 2019, and the passenger volume has also recovered to over 100%. However, the recovery of the international market still requires a long process, and recently the international flight volume has just reached 40% of 2019."

China Merchants Securities pointed out in its research report that since the first quarter, the domestic inter provincial tourism in China has accelerated its recovery, with most scenic spots experiencing passenger flow recovery exceeding the same period in 2019. The performance of scenic spots has significantly recovered, leisure areas have gradually recovered, natural scenic spots have accelerated their recovery, and the prosperity of the summer peak season is expected to continue to rebound. The May Day data for hotel tourism exceeded expectations, and tourism during the Dragon Boat Festival and summer vacation is expected to continue to grow in the second quarter.

New comment: Donkey like "morale" limit pulls US debt "bomb" fuse hard to dismantle US | debt | morale

On the evening of June 1st, the US Senate passed a bill on the federal government's debt ceiling and budget, and the flame of the US debt bomb was temporarily extinguished at the last moment. The two parties in the United States have staged an extreme tug of war over the US debt bomb. Some experts believe that the US debt crisis is the result of the reckless politics promoted by the US dollar hegemony, and the underlying cause of this crisis is the highly polarized political system of the US. Since the end of World War II, the US Congress has adjusted the debt ceiling more than a hundred times. The recurring debt crisis will not only have a catastrophic impact on the US economy and people's livelihoods, but also continuously erode the value of US dollar assets such as government credit and US bonds, bringing significant and far-reaching impacts to the global economic landscape. 【
