Civil Aviation Administration of China: Power banks without 3C certification or recalled models banned on domestic flights
To ensure the safety of aviation operations, the Civil Aviation Administration of China has issued an urgent notice. Starting June 28, passengers are prohibited from carrying power banks that lack a 3C certification label, have unclear 3C labeling, or belong to recalled models or batches on domestic flights. (For details, please visit the official website of the State Administration for Market Regulation's Defective Product Recall Technical Center at www.samrdprc.org.cn/xfpzh/xfpgnzh)
Pudong Airport and Hongqiao Airport will enforce the requirements of this notice to ensure passenger safety. We kindly ask all passengers to comply with this notice by carefully checking the certification label, brand, and model of your power banks before traveling. Please do not bring non-compliant power banks on board. Remove your power bank before security checks to prevent travel delays.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
A groundbreaking ceremony was held for a raft of 82 major projects in the Pudong New Area in East China's Shanghai city on Jan 4 – with total investments valued at 317.6 billion yuan ($49.8 billion) – at the site earmarked for the latest extension of Shanghai Pudong International Airport.
The fourth phase of Pudong Airport's expansion project was launched in response to the Shanghai international shipping center construction plan during the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-25) and the Yangtze River Delta integration development strategy.
It aims to accelerate the interconnection of the YRD region, serve consumer demand for high-quality travel and satisfy the development needs of Shanghai-based airlines.
The fourth phase comprises six parts: a terminal area, flight zone, transport facilities, municipal engineering support facilities, a new eastern cargo area and auxiliary facilities.
After completion, it is expected to contribute to Pudong Airport's goal of reaching annual passenger throughput of 130 million.
The new terminal will include two main buildings for domestic and international businesses. With the aim of building a safe, green, smart and user-friendly complex, new technology applications will be installed – such as a public check-in system, automatic baggage sorting system and a non-baggage self-service check-in system – to elevate the overall experience of passengers.
