China's finance ministry said on Thursday that it would offer subsidies to Chinese airlines from May 21 to July 20 to help carriers weather the coronavirus-induced downturn and higher oil prices.
 

Cash support will only be provided when average daily numbers of domestic flights per week are lower or equal to 4,500 flights and when the average load factors are lower than 75 percent, the ministry said on its website.
 

The maximum grant would be 24,000 yuan (US$3,574) per hour to the loss-making flights, the ministry added.
 

Domestic air traffic has plunged because of lockdowns in Shanghai and surrounding cities. Shanghai-based China Eastern said passenger numbers collapsed 90.7 percent in April year on year, while Shanghai International Airport saw passenger numbers down 98.9 percent in the same period.
 

Last year, China's aviation industry reported a net loss of 84.25 billion yuan, compared with 102.96 billion yuan in the red for 2020.
 

中国民航局:从5月21日至7月20日对国内运输航空公司符合条件的客运航班给予补贴

中国民航局今天下午召开新闻发布会,介绍4月份全国民航安全生产运行情况。4月份,全行业完成运输航空飞行26.2万小时,同比下降73.7%;通用航空飞行11.3万小时,同比增长3.8%。本月未发生运输航空事故,安全运行态势总体平稳。
 

受国内疫情冲击明显、经济下行压力加大、航油价格居高不下等多重不利因素影响,4月份,民航运输生产指标大幅下滑。全行业运输总周转量、旅客运输量、货邮运输量、航班效益指标进一步下滑。4月份共保障各类飞行13.6万班,日均4526班,日均同比下降69.8%。全国航班正常率为97.5%。
 

发布会上,民航局财务司司长熊艳华表示,为进一步提升民航业应对疫情冲击的防风险能力,加快民航业恢复发展,从5月21日至7月20日对国内运输航空公司符合条件的国内客运航班给予补贴政策支持。该政策是国家基于民航业当前面临的阶段性困难,统筹考虑各方面情况后决定实施的特殊纾困政策。
 

补贴对象和范围方面,补贴政策普惠公平,不区分规模、性质,所有执飞国内客运航班的国内运输航空公司均可申请。同时,设定了纳入补贴范围的具体条件,包括每周内日均航班量未超过最低飞行航班数;每周每条航段平均客座率未超过75%;航班实际收入无法覆盖变动成本。
 

补贴标准方面,本次补贴以“保变动成本”为主要目标,对航班实际收入扣减变动成本后的亏损额给予补贴,并设定补贴上限为每小时2.4万元。
 

资金安排方面,补贴资金由中央和地方财政共同承担,中央财政总体承担约70%,地方财政总体承担约30%,具体由航班起飞机场所在地财政部门统一拨付。考虑到航空公司资金紧张,中央财政补贴资金采取先预拨后清算方式,同时,每周结算一次。
