The 11th International Smart Airport Development Forum 2023 & Smart Aviation Logistics International Forum was successfully held.

Recently, the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) issued the "Guiding Opinions on Implementing the Overall Plan for the Construction of Digital China and Accelerating the Development of Smart Civil Aviation." The opinions pointed out that as a new round of technological and industrial revolution is deeply developing, accelerating digital development and technological innovation has become a key area of international competition in the civil aviation industry.

In the comprehensive promotion of the digital empowerment of smart civil aviation construction, an industry alliance front driven by scene-based "one face for travel, one bill for logistics, one inspection for clearance, one network for operation, and one platform for regulation" is being built rapidly around five important areas: civil aviation safety production, aviation services, green development, government regulation, and industry culture. In the aviation service field, the focus is on improving the travel experience of passengers and the efficiency of aviation logistics. By using digital technology, a convenient and comfortable travel service system is being built, and an efficient aviation logistics service system is being created. The expansion and enrichment of general aviation formats are highly valued by the aviation transportation industry.
