BEIJING, March 26 (Xinhua) -- The Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport saw its passenger throughput recover quickly since late February this year in the wake of the improvement of the COVID-19 epidemic prevention and control situation in China, the Xinhua-run Shanghai Securities News reported on Thursday.
Data showed that from March 1 to March 21, average daily passenger flow at the airport amounted to over 130,000 people, with the number exceeding 150,000 on March 19, returning to a pre-pandemic peak level.
At present, China's civil aviation industry is well on track of recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic shock. In February, the sector handled about 23.95 million passenger trips, up 187.1 percent year on year.
Last year, the sector handled overall 420 million passenger trips, which was 63.3 percent of that in 2019.
