Yesterday, the Spring Festival travel rush Office of Hangzhou released a message that from now on, Hangzhou Changyun will introduce a permanent and effective measure for bus tickets during the Spring Festival travel rush period. As long as the line is opened, ticket holders can go with them as soon as they arrive. That is to say, instead of waiting at the bus station, they can go to the bus station at any time.

At present, the situation of roads around Hangzhou has improved, and a large number of passengers will flock to the station. At present, the transportation department of Hangzhou has set up departure points outside the station according to the actual situation, in which the temporary waiting point of the West Coach Station is located in the nearby Armed Police Command School, and the temporary waiting point of the North Coach Station is located in the nearby Motor City. Once the station is overcrowded, these places will also be used as temporary departure points, where passengers can wait and get on the bus.

The detention situation at the railway station has improved.
As the disastrous rain and snow weather continues, the number of trains stopped at Hangzhou Railway Station has increased. On the 30th, 18 pairs of new trains were stopped, bringing the total number of stopped trains to 38.
However, due to a large number of passengers returning their tickets at the station according to the outage situation, nearly 40,000 tickets were refunded at Hangzhou Railway Station and Hangzhou East Railway Station in only three days from January 28 to 30. In addition, some passengers responded to the call of government departments and stayed in Hangzhou for the holidays, which made the passengers stranded in Hangzhou Station basically delivered by 30th, and the train operation order was adjusted accordingly due to the suspension. It is expected that the train operation order from Hangzhou to Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Guangzhou will be gradually restored after today. The situation of Hangzhou’s delay in going to Xi ‘an, Taiyuan, Datong, Fuyang and Hefei has been greatly improved, and the operation order has basically recovered.
To this end, the ticket offices of Hangzhou Railway Station and Hangzhou East Railway Station will resume the sale of train tickets to all parts of the country within three days from today, and the ticket outlets in the city will still sell train tickets to all parts of the country within 11 days. In the early stage, due to the serious delay of trains in the direction of Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Guangzhou, passengers who have not yet refunded their tickets and are still waiting for news, if they still need to continue to take the bus, Hangzhou Station and hangzhou east railway station can go through the formalities of changing the corresponding trains to late boarding according to passenger demand and train operation and transportation capacity. From today, Hangzhou Railway Station will set up a special window for changing tickets in the North Ticket Office to handle the corresponding change procedures for passengers who hold train tickets for Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Guangzhou from the 27th to 31st.

There are more and more waiting passenger settlement points.

civil aviation
Xiaoshan airport is back to normal.
Because the snow caused the airport to close for six hours, the flight delay at Xiaoshan Airport on the 29th was very serious. By 10: 00 pm on the 29th, there were more than 100 flights that day, accounting for nearly half of the total number of flights. Xiaoshan airport was brightly lit all night, and people came and went, which was very lively. The latest flight didn’t end until 6: 00 a.m. on the 30th.
On the 30th, the rainy and snowy weather for several days came to an end temporarily, and the flights at Xiaoshan Airport finally returned to normal. At 7 o’clock in the morning, flights began to take off one after another, and the flights were orderly, and the crowd waiting in the terminal was not as crowded as it was a few days ago.
After several days of continuous closure, Changsha Airport has accumulated a large number of flights to be flown, so there are strict restrictions on receiving inbound flights, basically one every two hours, so the waiting time for flights from Hangzhou to Changsha is longer. Air China flight CA1789, which originally left in the morning, has not taken off until five o’clock in the afternoon. Guiyang airport was closed before 9: 00 in the morning, so Air China flight CA1751 from Hangzhou to Guiyang was delayed until 10: 59.
According to statistics, there were about 30 flights delayed at Xiaoshan Airport yesterday, mainly due to flow control. Generally speaking, the airport flight operation has basically returned to normal. Next, it will be the rush hour in Spring Festival travel rush, and the number of flights has increased a lot these days. It is expected that the daily average number of flights at Xiaoshan Airport will exceed 320 in the next few days.
National airport flights began to resume.
Two days ago, the bad weather in a large area of the country caused many airport flights to be abnormal, and delays and cancellations were very common. Since yesterday, flights at airports around the country have been gradually on the right track, because many flights were cancelled two days ago and many make-up flights were left behind. In addition, it is the rush hour in Spring Festival travel rush, and the daily flight volume of major airports has reached saturation. Because the air traffic is too large, there is traffic control in many directions, especially in Guangzhou, Beijing, Shenzhen and other directions. Because these directions have traffic control more or less, most of the delayed flights on the 30th are in these directions. (Xia Chun Gao Yun Yang Hanyu Li Yanzhou Gao Yanhua)
