China's busiest airport to give more slots to foreign airlines

BEIJING -- Foreign airlines can expect to receive more flight slots in the future at the busiest airport in the Chinese capital, as a result of government efforts to increase transparency and build an international hub, an official said.

He Yan, director of slot management for the North China regional administration of the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), said the entire process of slot distribution would go online in August.

This means airlines will be able to monitor the regional administration, which is responsible for allocating flight slots at Beijing Capital International Airport. The airport is currently the third busiest in the world in terms of passenger flow.

“Any carrier dissatisfied with the result of flight slot distribution can report and complain to the discipline authorities of both the CAAC and the regional bureau,” he said, adding that it is the first time discipline departments will be involved in the allocation of slots.
