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.

In 2025, Shanghai airports handled more than 135 million passengers, with European routes playing a significant role in the growth. AVINEX figures show that Lufthansa Group carried over 570,000 passengers and operated more than 40 weekly flights between Shanghai and European cities.
The joint venture, Shanghai Pudong International Airport Cargo Terminal Co Ltd (PACTL), has grown into a major cargo hub, operating terminals across Shanghai and Nantong, Jiangsu province, with an annual throughput capacity exceeding 2 million metric tons.
During the 15th Five-Year Plan period (2026-30), AVINEX will expand its global route network, enhance passenger transfer capacity and service quality, and further strengthen its role as a premier comprehensive international aviation hub, accelerating Shanghai's global aviation ambitions and future growth goals.
