Recently, AirAsia announced that starting from August 1st, it will launch two new routes between Ningbo and Malaysia: Kuala Lumpur and Kota Kinabalu (Sabah); these routes will be operated by AirAsia Malaysia. With this addition, Kuala Lumpur will become one of the major Asian cities served by Ningbo Airport, joining the list alongside the newly launched Ho Chi Minh City route in Vietnam.

近日,亚洲航空宣布,将从8月1日起,先后开通宁波往返马来西亚吉隆坡、亚庇(沙巴)2条全新航线,由马来西亚亚航运营。马来西亚首都吉隆坡也成为继越南胡志明市后,今年宁波机场开通的又一条亚洲主要城市航线。

Since December 1st last year, Malaysia has implemented a visa-free policy for Chinese citizens, on top of which travelers will be able to enter Malaysia with just a passport departing from Ningbo. Relevant authorities have stated that the new routes will take advantage of the visa-free policy to promote tourism and business exchanges between China and Malaysia.

从去年12月1日起,马来西亚对中国公民实施免签政策,宁波旅客购买机票后,只要一本护照就能入境马来西亚。相关人士表示,新航线将会利用免签政策,促进中国与马来西亚之间的旅游和商务交流。

Ningbo Airport has also introduced a direct flight to Phuket (Thailand) starting from July 4th. In a recent announcement from Cathay Pacific, this Hong Kong-based airline will resume the Ningbo-Hong Kong route from August 1st after a hiatus of four and a half years.

同时,从7月4日起,宁波机场也将新增直飞泰国普吉航班。此外,国泰航空宣布从8月1日起,在时隔4年半后恢复宁波往返香港航班。

Thanks to the expansion of China’s visa-free target countries and the implementation of various entry facilitation policies such as the 144-hour visa-free transit, the “ChinaTravel” craze has blossomed at home and abroad, and the inbound tourism market continues to heat up.

伴随中国免签“朋友圈”加速扩容,以及144小时过境免签等一系列入境旅游便利化政策落地,国内外刮起了“ChinaTravel”的热潮,入境游市场持续升温。

According to data from the Ningbo Airport Border Inspection Station, the number of inbound and outbound passengers at Ningbo Airport is expected to reach 170,000 this summer. This represents a 21% year-on-year increase, setting a new high for the year. The current growth trend in passenger flow, combined with recent expansions and intensifications of flight schedules, indicates a steady overall increase in border passenger traffic.

宁波机场边检站的数字显示,根据目前口岸客流增长趋势,在综合考虑近期新增及加密航班计划的基础上,今年暑期宁波空港口岸出入境客流预测将达17万人次,同比增长21%,将创下今年新高,出入境客流量持续保持稳步增长的总体态势。
