Wang pointed out that current regional flights have low daily passenger volume and high costs, making their sustainable development an international issue. Nearly all countries and regions with well-developed aviation industries have their own regional aviation development policies.
Therefore, he suggested that China should increase subsidies to regional aviation operations and add subsidy targets. Improving policy support system to develop aircraft industry is also crucial.
