circuit breaker mechanism has been greatly changed
On the morning of August 7, a latest announcement issued by the Civil Aviation Administration also solved the urgent need for overseas Chinese to worry about sky-high air tickets.
It is reported that the circuit breaker measures for international flights will be changed again: for a single inbound flight of airlines with a number of confirmed passengers reaching 5 cases. When the proportion of confirmed passengers reaches the number of inbound passengers of the flight 4%, suspended operation for one week ; when the proportion of confirmed passengers reaches the number of inbound passengers of the flight 8%, suspended operation for two weeks .
can compare the old circuit breaker mechanism in 2021: the number of confirmed cases reaches 5, the circuit breaker mechanism will be triggered, 5 cases will be suspended for 2 weeks, and more than 10 cases will be suspended for 4 weeks.
Now that this new mechanism is implemented, the chances of large flights from long-distance international routes such as to Europe and the United States will be greatly reduced, and the time for grounding will be reduced by 1 times.
is still flying more flights, and the risk of sudden grounding and re-signing is reduced, so the air ticket price will naturally drop.
Vancouver return flight tickets have been greatly reduced in price
China continues to release good news. Under the general trend, the price of air tickets for returning to Vancouver have also begun to plummet.
freights queried with Google Flights. In January, the lowest price of to fly to Shanghai is only $738 , which is completely lower than the price range of $840-$3100 .

Although there is no direct flight to Guangzhou, the price of $961 is also exciting.
is currently the only one with relatively expensive fares, probably Air China Vancouver to Beijing, with the average price still around $2,000. And there is no trend of price reduction in winter.
Overall, after these major policies are updated, overseas Chinese have at least a variety of choices to return to China, and they don’t have to be helpless when facing a plane ticket worth up to tens of thousands of yuan.
If you want to hurry up, you can choose to purchase direct flight tickets to the mainland around New Year's Day and around the Spring Festival a few months in advance, and choose to quarantine in the incoming city. If you have relatively plenty of time and want to save more money, you can choose to purchase two flights from overseas to Hong Kong + Hong Kong to the Mainland in advance and receive two quarantines.
Of course, perhaps the policy of returning to China will continue to be relaxed in the next few months, so let’s look forward to it together!
