Before the COVID-19 outbreak in 2019, the number of domestic flights completed fluctuated seasonally but was generally stable. However, it changed dramatically after 2019. In 2020, the number dropped to a record low of less than 20,000.

In 2021, it plummeted after the May Day holiday, as a result of the stricter domestic travel restrictions. In 2022, with the resurgence of the pandemic and the early end of the summer holiday, the number dropped again.

After the Chinese New Year in 2023, the flights kept approaching the level of the same period in 2019, reflecting the rebound of consumption. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the GDP of the accommodation and the catering industry in the first quarter was 451.1 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 13.6%.

The volume of civil aviation flights last week exceeded that of the same period in 2019. The increase was attributed to residents’ strong willingness to travel after the pandemic, more flexible itineraries as a result of the more dense high-speed railroad network and a surge in demand for business and meetings amid the accelerated economic recovery.

The recovery of tourism and the travel industry is driving the service industry employment demand. According to Liepin Big Data, in the first quarter of this year, new job openings in civil aviation, railway, highway and waterway passenger transportation jumped by 12.02% year-on-year while the openings in tourism inched up by 0.92%.
