In the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, as integrated development continues to accelerate, regional connectivity becomes increasingly convenient, and multimodal transport continues to improve, during this holiday, many Hong Kong and Macao travelers chose to travel north via Shenzhen to catch flights, that is, to board flights through Shenzhen to visit relatives and spend holidays in the mainland. The reporter learned that, taking China Southern Airlines' Shenzhen hub as an example, from September to September 26, among the flights via Shenzhen, the passenger flow of Hong Kong and Macao travelers to the mainland grew steadily, totaling 29,274 passenger trips, up 23.70% year on year. Among them, from September 14 to 26, the average daily passenger volume exceeded 1,250 passenger trips, maintaining a high level. More and more Hong Kong and Macao travelers choose to come to the mainland to celebrate the festival. Tourist cities such as Urumqi, Beijing, Shanghai, Kunming, Xi'an, Dali, and Lijiang are all popular destinations favored by Hong Kong and Macao travelers. Based on a comprehensive assessment of passenger flow, on September 27, the last day of the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, until the eve of the National Day holiday, the scale of travel by Hong Kong and Macao travelers via Shenzhen will continue to rise, with travel purposes covering diverse scenarios such as leisure tourism, family reunions, business inspections, and project research.
