The airport conducted research on summer travel trends in advance and carried out the precise analysis of passenger flow and travel patterns. Centering on passengers' travel demands, the airport made arrangements for all support services to be put in place, striving to guarantee smooth journeys for all.
The airport has increased flight frequencies to popular destinations, including Beijing, Shanghai, and Nanjing. Air China, China Eastern Airlines, Hainan Airlines, and other carriers will deploy more wide-body aircraft on multiple domestic flight routes linking Guiyang with Beijing, Shanghai, and other cities.
With more spacious cabins and superior seating configurations, these aircraft deliver a more comfortable and seamless travel experience for passengers.
