The deployment of C919 aircraft during the Spring Festival travel rush has the following significance:
I. Significance for the Aviation Market
1. Meeting travel demand
The Spring Festival travel rush is a peak period of air travel in China. The C919 can increase the overall transport capacity of airlines. With its entry into service during this period, it can provide more flight options for passengers, helping to relieve the pressure of high demand routes. For example, on some popular routes from major cities to hometowns of migrant workers or tourist destinations, the additional seats provided by the C919 can meet the needs of more people to reunite with their families or travel.
2. Market competition and diversification
The participation of the C919 in the Spring Festival travel rush promotes competition in the domestic aviation market. Airlines can use the C919 as a new selling point to attract passengers. Its appearance also diversifies the types of aircraft in the fleet, which is conducive to airlines optimizing their flight operation plans and cost control strategies according to different aircraft performance characteristics.
3. Boosting the domestic aviation industry chain
During the Spring Festival travel rush, high frequency operations of the C919 can test the coordination ability of the entire domestic aviation industry chain more comprehensively. From aircraft manufacturing, maintenance, to parts supply and flight support services, continuous operation promotes the improvement of the industrial chain. For example, it can drive related parts suppliers to improve production efficiency and quality control, and promote the development of maintenance technology for the C919.
4. Enhancing brand awareness
For the C919 itself, being deployed during the Spring Festival travel rush, which has a large passenger flow, is an excellent opportunity to showcase its performance and comfort. Passengers' actual flight experiences on the C919 can help spread positive word of mouth, further enhancing the brand awareness of the C919 at home and abroad, which is beneficial for future market expansion.
II. Technological and Operational Aspects
1. Flight performance verification
The Spring Festival travel rush often involves various complex flight conditions, such as different weather conditions, high density air traffic control, etc. The operation of the C919 during this period can further verify its flight performance in real world complex environments. For example, it can test its ability to take off and land in different wind conditions, and its adaptability to busy air traffic control instructions.
2. Data collection for improvement
Airlines can collect a large amount of flight data during the Spring Festival travel rush operation of the C919, including data on aircraft systems, passenger experience, and flight efficiency. These data are precious resources for the continuous improvement of the C919. Based on the analysis of these data, the manufacturer can carry out targeted optimization of the aircraft, such as improving fuel efficiency, enhancing cabin comfort, and optimizing flight control systems.
