Airlines Continue Move Into New International Terminal More Than Half of All Daily International Flights Switched Over NEWS December 7, 2000 MEDIA ADVISORY: Contact: Ron V. Wilson FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Director, Bureau of Community Affairs (650) 821-4000 SF-00-74 Airlines Continue Move Into New International Terminal More than half of all daily international flights switched over SAN FRANCISCO -- The move-in process to San Francisco International Airport’s new International Terminal continues to go smoothly as airlines switch over their operations. Four of the Airport’s 24 international carriers – British Airways, EVA Airways, KLM Royal Dutch, and Philippine Airlines -- will move its operations from the existing terminal to the new terminal overnight. The move is scheduled to happen between each airline’s final flight today and first flight tomorrow morning. All British Airways, EVA, KLM and Philippine Airlines flights will operate out of the new International Terminal as of midnight tonight. Travelers should confirm all flight times and locations with their airlines before coming to the Airport. United Airlines, the Airport’s largest international carrier, successfully moved its operations over on Wednesday, doubling the number of passengers in the new terminal. “As the world’s largest airline, and with SFO representing our largest international hub, we’re delighted to bring our 18 daily non-stop international departures to this wonderful, new, state-of-the-art facility,” said Frank Kent, Northern California Managing Director for United Airlines. “Our customers will be better served and will experience dramatically improved convenience as a result.” An estimated 8,554 passengers are scheduled to depart from the new Terminal tomorrow and 8,035 are expected to arrive in the new International Terminal, totaling 16,589. Approximately 11,455 passengers and 6,615 pieces of outgoing luggage traveled successfully through the new International Terminal on Wednesday. Page 2 SF-00-74 All international flights – except most flights to and from Canada, which operate out of the domestic terminals – will operate out of the new International Terminal by Sunday, December 10. The Airport expects this week’s move-in process to continue to go smoothly. Officials have worked to identify any and all problems that may affect the traveling public and are confident that the terminal’s many benefits will greatly outweigh any temporary inconveniences. More than 100 support people from the Airport’s system vendors are on-site this week to address any problems that may arise before the terminal becomes fully operational on December 10. Airport ambassadors -- easily identified in teal-blue jackets with the SFO logo -- will be on duty throughout the week to help alleviate any confusion among travelers. The Airport strongly recommends to those who are traveling internationally or picking up international passengers to allow extra time during the move and to check with the airline for terminal location. Those traveling internationally should arrive at the Airport three hours ahead of the flight’s scheduled departure time. The roadways leading to the Airport have changed and drivers are cautioned to slow down and follow the signs to the appropriate terminal for their carrier. More information on the opening of the new International Terminal is available at SFO’s Web site www.flysfo.com or by calling 650-821-6405. - SFO - Page 3 SF-00-74 Airline Move-in dates for New International Terminal at SFO Monday, Dec. 4 Allegro, SunTrips Tuesday, Dec. 5 Asiana Airlines, Mexicana Airlines, Singapore Airlines Wednesday, Dec. 6 Aeroflot Russian International Airlines, Air France, China Airlines, Korean Air, Lufthansa German Airlines, United Airlines (International) Thursday, Dec. 7 Japan Airlines Friday, Dec. 8 British Airways, EVA Airways, KLM Royal Dutch*, Philippine Airlines Saturday, Dec. 9 Air China, All Nippon Airways, TACA International Airlines, Virgin Atlantic Airlines Sunday, Dec. 10 Alitalia, Cathay Pacific, Hawaiian Airlines, Northwest Airlines (International), Swissair * Please note KLM is now scheduled to move into the new Terminal on Dec.8, not Dec. 10, as previously announced. .

  • Dual-Hub Connectivity: a Case Study on China Eastern Airlines in Shanghai Huijuan Yang* and Weiwei Liu
    Yang and Liu European Transport Research Review (2019) 11:25 European Transport https://doi.org/10.1186/s12544-019-0364-6 Research Review ORIGINAL PAPER Open Access Dual-hub connectivity: a case study on China Eastern Airlines in Shanghai Huijuan Yang* and Weiwei Liu Abstract To deal with slot constraints and insufficient capacity, emerging multi-airport systems have been under construction in China. This paper chose China Eastern Airlines as a case study, evaluating its hub connectivity under a dual-hub circumstance in Shanghai. The paper detected that the biggest constraint of China Eastern Airlines’ dual-hub situation lied in Shanghai’s location and the restricted transfer options on international routes. Contributions from alliance partners were assessed and benchmarked with China Eastern Airlines. With China Southern Airlines quit SkyTeam alliance, China Eastern Airlines faced more challenges on the domestic market. The empirical study also pointed out the shortcoming of operating at two hubs in the same catchment area, where the quality of connectivity of inter-hub connections cannot be maintained as high as a single-hub transfer. However, the market potential of inter-hub connections in Shanghai was identified with a considerable amount of viable connections. Keywords: Hub connectivity, Dual-hub operation, China Eastern Airlines 1 Introduction Multi-airport system largely expands the catchment area Airports have experienced pressures on operational cap- and capacity in the region. It provides better accessibility acity and congestion due to the worldwide effects of explo- for passengers, and attracts and generates more traffic for sive passenger growth, particularly in high-growth regions airlines and airports.
