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.

Shanghai Pudong International Airport has introduced a new cross-airline, cross-terminal transfer service involving China Eastern Airlines (including Shanghai Airlines) and Sichuan Airlines, further improving transit connectivity between Australia, New Zealand and Chengdu via Shanghai, starting from June 1.
The service covers selected itineraries between Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Auckland, Chengdu, and other destinations, allowing eligible passengers to transfer at Pudong under interline arrangements coordinated by participating airlines and airport services.
For applicable flights, passengers may complete check-in procedures at the departure airport and have their baggage tagged through to the final destination, subject to airline agreements and operational conditions, reducing the need for repeated handling during transfers in Shanghai.
Upon arrival at Pudong Airport, transfer passengers follow designated transfer routes and signage to connect to onward flights. Relevant inspection, customs and security procedures are completed in accordance with applicable regulations, supported by airport transfer facilitation services.
This initiative follows the earlier introduction of a cross-airline transfer product between China Eastern Airlines and Juneyao Airlines on April 30, marking further expansion of Pudong Airport's integrated transfer service network across carriers and terminals.
