Zhengzhou airport sees over 50% inbound passenger traffic during Spring Festival
During the eight-day Spring Festival holiday, Henan attracted a large number of international tourists, thanks to its rich cultural heritage and advantageous geographical location as a transportation hub. As of February 4 (the last day of the holiday), since the start of the Spring Festival travel rush, Zhengzhou's air port has seen 72,700 inbound and outbound travelers, including 37,533 inbound arrivals, accounting for 51.63% of the total. With the implementation of the 240-hour visa-free transit policy, Zhengzhou's air port experienced a peak in inbound and outbound traffic.
Last year, China fully relaxed and optimized its visa-free transit policy, which has led to a continued boom in inbound tourism. From July 15, 2024, to February 4, 2025, Zhengzhou airport customs supervised a total of 852,200 inbound and outbound travelers, marking a year-on-year increase of 101.13%. Among them, 428,900 are inbound passengers, reflecting a year-on-year increase of 98.41%.
