Pudong airport sees record number of passengers during Spring Festival
The city of Shanghai's Pudong International Airport has reported its largest ever passenger flow during the recent Spring Festival, Feb 7-13, handling a total of 680,000 passengers over the 7-day period, a 5-percent increase over 2015 and 28-percent over 2014.
One single day, Feb 7, Lunar New Year's Eve, saw more than 92,000 passengers, the highest number for that day over the past 10 years and a 14-percent year-on-year increase. The last day of the holiday, Feb 13, was also a peak day, with a historic number of 122,600 passengers, breaking the previous record of 121,500 in a single day.
To deal with the travel rush and make things more convenient and efficient, the airport said it increased the number of service areas, such as the Common-Use Self-Service kiosks, self-service check-in machines and self-service boarding channels. Passengers could also go through immigration in Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 easily and Hong Kong and Macao residents coming to Shanghai with a Chinese e-passport and mainland travel permit could go through clearance by themselves within 12 seconds.
