Major Chinese airlines introduce paid in-flight meal options_我的网站

A |     (ECNS) -- Major Chinese airlines, including Air China, China Eastern Airlines, China Southern Airlines and Sichuan Airlines, have introduced paid in-flight meal options on domestic routes, ranging from affordable snacks to premium platters costing several hundred yuan, as carriers seek to diversify their catering services.        Economic analyst Pan Helin said the move is being driven by several factors. Paid meal services are already a well-established business model in other transport sectors, while offering passengers more choices can also help airlines increase brand exposure through social media. In addition, in-flight catering has long faced cost pressures, and paid services could help turn catering from a cost burden into a potential source of revenue.    A survey showed that ticket prices account for 34% of passengers' decision-making when booking flights, while in-flight meals account for just 6%. However, passengers said they were willing to pay an average of $27 more for higher-quality meals, a finding Pan said reflects increasingly diverse passenger preferences.    While budget-conscious travelers may be reluctant to pay extra for meals, others, including business travelers, content creators and social media users, may be willing to spend more for an enhanced dining experience, Pan noted.    The China Air Transport Association has said that free economy-class meals will not be eliminated despite the expansion of paid options. However, Pan said some adjustments to complimentary meal services may be unavoidable from a business perspective.    He suggested four measures to prevent excessive downgrading of free meals: establishing clear basic meal standards, improving cost transparency, introducing third-party catering companies into the supply chain, and clearly distinguishing between basic and premium meal services.    Looking ahead, Pan said the future of paid in-flight meals lies not in luxury, but in offering trendy and visually appealing choices that cater to social media-savvy travelers. Airlines could also provide more diverse options, including vegetarian, low-calorie and liquid meals. He suggested that carriers could source local specialties from stopover airports or collaborate with lifestyle brands and intellectual properties on selected routes.    Ultimately, paid in-flight meals should focus on meeting passengers' changing preferences rather than simply charging higher prices, Pan said.    (By Tang Yuxian)                        。    《黑神话》官方旗舰店@黑神话BLACKMYTH上新，黑神话衍生品新增文具系列——笔袋，尺子，胶带，贴纸。服装系列也上新了几款长袖秋装，亲子系列同步上线长袖款式。·素色海波纹笔袋/小圣降大圣笔袋     ·章节动画主题光栅尺《不由己》/《未尽》/《勿听》     ·黑神话水彩贴纸/黑神话萌萌贴纸/黑神话零售店标徽纹章贴纸     ·共享天真亲子卫衣成人款米色/深蓝色     ·共享天真亲子卫衣儿童款米色/深蓝色     ·四魔将-妄相长袖T恤     ·药师佛葫芦-1/3收藏琉璃摆件     本文由游民星空制作发布，未经允许禁止转载。更多相关资讯请关注：黑神话：钟馗专区。
