  • An Overview of China's Recent Domestic and International Air
    An overview of China’s recent domestic and international air transport policy Abstract This chapter reviews China’s domestic and international air transport policy. The introduction of private and low-cost carriers, together with the emergence of HSR, put much competitive pressure on the Chinese state-owned carriers and create momentum for further reforms in China’s air transport sector. In the last two decades, relatively liberal air services arrangements have been made with some major markets including the US, ASEAN, Korea, Japan etc. These open and liberal arraignments have given the Chinese carriers the room to grow and the chance to become stronger. They in turn call for further liberalisation moves to allow for their deeper participation in and engagement with international air transport service provisions. 1. Overview of China’s economic growth and air transport industry Air travel and economic growth have an intertwined relationship. On the one hand, the demand for air travel depends heavily on economic conditions, resulting in the fact that the air transport industry is extremely cyclical in demand. On the other hand, it is a widely held view that as an input into many economic activities including tourism, trade and investment, air transport has been an important component in achieving economic development and welfare enhancement (Zhang and Findlay 2014). Air transport is particularly important to distant and remote regions where there is no close substitute for this transport mode due to the tyranny of distance. In some parts of the world, air transport is the only viable means of transportation for both goods and people due to geographic or climate constraints (Pagliari 2010).

    I will take you through an update on the progress we have made over the past 2 years and also provide some insight into what you should expect for 2015. We will begin with a short video which describes what the air travel shopping experience could look like with an NDC standard in place. This is not about IATA building a system for a travel agent! This is about illustrating how a travel IT provider could use the NDC standard to create exciting and comprehensive shopping interfaces for a travel agent or online travel site. The video shows how the NDC standard can help Online Travel Agents, Business Travel Agents and also Corporate travel departments (corporate booking tools). These mock ups were designed in consultation with focus groups of travel agents and corporate buyers over the last 18 months. 1 Reminder: This is not about IATA building a system. This is about illustrating how a travel IT provider could use the NDC standard to create exciting and comprehensive shopping interfaces for a travel agent or online travel site. 2 NDC is in effect the modernization of 40-year-old data exchange standards for ticket distribution developed before the Internet was invented. IATA was created nearly 70 years ago to set industry standards that facilitate safe and efficient air travel (e.g. e-ticketing, bar coded boarding passes, common use airport kiosks, etc. In the case of NDC, once again, IATA’s role will be to deliver the standards that enable such capabilities for our industry partners so as to be able to offer the passenger the opportunity to have a consistent shopping experience, wherever they shop for travel.
