Shanghai's Hongqiao International Airport has enhanced COVID-19 prevention measures to prepare for the large number of travelers expected over the long holiday of the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival. As the novel coronavirus pandemic wanes in China, passenger numbers and volumes of domestic flights at Hongqiao airport have been restored to normal levels. The passengers’ turnover is expected to be even higher during the coming holiday. The airport is expected to receive 120,000 daily travelers during the 8-day holiday which will start on Thursday, the biggest volume since the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic early this year, said Tang Yichen, the manager on duty at the airport’s operation headquarters.
