The new round of crown disease in China spreads on the eve of the Mid -Autumn Festival holiday. In many places, the official once again called on the people to celebrate the holidays on the spot, "it is necessary not to return to the hometown."This may lead to another important node that boosted domestic demand, which adds pressure on the slow -recovery of tourism, catering and other industries.
Monday (September 5th) of mainland China (September 5) has added 1499 crown disease infection cases, and 25 of the 31 provinces and cities in China have appeared infected.Capital Beijing Tuesday (September 6) added a clustered epidemic involving six people, which occurred in Changping Campus of Beijing University of Chemical Technology.
The areas that are affected by this round of epidemic covers multiple popular tourist cities, such as Hainan, Lhasa and Chengdu.As the Mid -Autumn Festival is approaching this weekend, many places have issued an epidemic prevention prompt to promote "unnecessary travel."
At the conference of the epidemic prevention and control on August 31, Shanghai reminded residents to plan the travel route reasonably, do not go to the high -risk area in the epidemic, or implement a temporary static management area, "advocating rural tourism and urban leisure tour in the city."
Luoyang, Shangqiu and other cities under the subordinates of Henan, a large province of migrant workers, also issued a "letter to a foreign fellow" last week, calling on migrant workers to stop returning to their hometowns and "try to stay in the local area to enjoy the Mid -Autumn Festival Mid -Autumn Festival and Mid -Autumn Festival Mid -Autumn Festival."" ".Hefei City, Anhui Province, also advocates that when the people are active in the city during the city, they also try to "not gather and eat less meals."
Hunan and other provinces such as Hunan and other provinces tighten personnel flow restrictions

The Mid -Autumn Festival and National Day, commonly known as the "Double Festival", are the last two public holidays in China this year.
Analysis predicts that travel management and control of various places will weaken tourism consumption needs during small holidays, and also impacts industry expectations and employment prospects.
Xie Dongming, director of the Research Director of the Greater China of Singapore, Xie Dongming pointed out in an interview with Lianhe Zaobao that the travel activities during the Golden Week each year, while boosting multiple industries such as transportation, accommodation, catering, and other industries.If the industry does not have enough confidence in the market, it will be more cautious in the future, and further impact the serious employment situation.
Xie Dongming said: "The current major challenge of the Chinese economy is that the residential department expects low. In addition to the new travel restrictions, the experience of a large number of tourists who stayed in Hainan due to the epidemic control also caused many peopleAnd consumption expectations. "
Tourism order rebound in Shanghai and other places
The impact ofEpidemic prevention and sealing and control on travel is directly reflected in the recently released traffic industry's financial report.
China National Railway Group's net loss in the first half of the year (RMB, the same below, the same, S $ 16.2 billion), of which passenger revenue fell 38.3 % year -on -year.
The three major airlines of China Southern Airlines, China International Airlines and Oriental Airlines have a cumulative loss of 49.7 billion yuan in the first half of the year, surpassing 40.96 billion yuan in the loss of last year.
However, driven by the backlog of Shanghai, Beijing and other places, the Mid -Autumn Festival holiday travel orders still rebound.
Ctrip data on the tourism platform shows that as of August 30, the National Mid -Autumn Festival holiday travel orders increased by 137 % over the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, and Shanghai orders increased by 639 %.
Xie Xiaoqing, a senior researcher at Ctrip Research Institute, predicts that the travel radius during the Mid -Autumn Festival is expected to reach a new high during the holidays, but whether the long -distance tourism market can be further opened still depends on the development trend of the epidemic situation in various places in the near future.
In addition, more tourists have shortened the early reservation period and the cancellation rate of travel has risen, which has also greatly enhanced the uncertainty faced by operators.
