According to the airport’s management board, during peak days from August 31 to September 4, the airport will serve an average of 720 flights with 125,000- 130,000 passengers per day. The airport will closely coordinate with airlines and ground service units to update flight schedules and arrange resources and equipment for ground service units.
It has allocated airline representatives at counter/boarding gates to guide and provide information for passengers and handle delays and cancellations.
Since August 26, the airport has reopened more gates at international terminals to serve both domestic and international flights.
It has also piloted the airport collaborative decision making (ACDM) model, and a biometric authentication system for passengers who use electronic identity cards.
These measures will ease congestion and significantly improve delays and cancellations.
