The history of China's aviation industry development is also the history of the development of China's flight equipment. When the People's Republic of China was founded in 1949, China had only 5 models，17 military aircraft, and no civil aviation, no civil aviation aircraft， either. During the founding ceremony of the People’s Republic of China, these 17 military aircraft flew twice over Tiananmen Square in Beijing. Over the years, China’s civil aviation industry has developed slowly. Civil aviation needs to use the military's equipment and airports for flight. Civil aviation uses military airport equipment, towers, dispatchers, and airports for operations. There is no independent civil aviation equipment and airport. "In February 1980, Deng Xiaoping proposed that civil aviation must be enterprise-oriented'" began the history of the rapid development of China's civil aviation industry. "On February 27, 1980, the Aviation Materials Department of the Civil Aviation Administration of Civil Aviation participated in the first Boeing 747SP 2442 wide-body passenger aircraft ordered by Civil Aviation of China." After that, China's civil aviation industry has successively increased the number and variety of aircraft. In 1980, China's civil aviation was not very developed. Ordinary Chinese did not have the opportunity to fly, not only because the price of air tickets was high, and the people's salary income was not enough to buy air tickets. More importantly, the purchase of air tickets requires a letter of introduction from the unit. According to China's national conditions at the time, all units were owned by the state. There were no private enterprises nor private enterprises, foreign-funded enterprises, or joint ventures. Ordinary people in China who want to buy air tickets will not be approved by the unit's leadership, let alone issue a letter of introduction to him or her. Therefore, those who take the aircraft of China's civil aviation are all officials of government and leaders of business. With the development of reform and opening up, private enterprises and self-employed individuals have emerged one after another, and there have been many "nouveau riche" and "ten thousand yuan households" whose financial ability can afford expensive air tickets, but they often still cannot fly. Because usually air tickets are reserved for government officials. They buy air tickets with letters of introduction from their own company. They are often placed on the waiting list. Government officials have the priority to take the air ticket. The booking system of Civil Aviation of China has undergone several changes. 1. Initially, only the control room of the ticketing department at the origin of the flight had the power to allocate tickets. If you are in different city and want to buy a ticket, you must make a long-distance phone call to inquire, but because you are in a different place, you can only make an appointment in advance and you cannot buy a ticket until you arrive the ticket department. The way to fill in the air ticket is manually. 2. Larger airlines coordinated their own company’s offices in different countries across China, and started to be able to remotely buy tickets. The form of booking is still telephone contact. The way to fill in the air ticket is to fill in manually. 3. Various airlines can exchange tickets with each other and settle accounts with each other. For example, the flight of Eastern Airlines could use the ticket of Air China to fill in the ticket. After the passengers pay for the air tickets, the airlines use the financial coupons of the tickets to settle each other. The booking method is still telephone contact. The way to fill in the air ticket is to fill in manually. It is still limited to passengers issuing tickets at the place of departure. 4. TravelSky Technology Limited has developed ticket booking software. Computer system booking. The departure flight information is entered in the computer system and can be queried at any time. However, because paper tickets that are filled out by hand are still used, tickets cannot be bought in other places. 5. TravelSky Technology Limited Ltd. enters flight information of various airports in China into civil aviation booking System, the conductor can book seats and issue tickets for passengers according to the information of the flight system. Open remote ticket sales. 6. The international sales of BILLING & SETTLEMENT PLAN (BSP) in China on July 31, 1995 The trial operation began on August 1, 1996, and the formal operation began on August 1, 1996. On September 1, 1996, the trial operation of China's BSP extension to domestic sales began. On January 1, 1997, China's BSP domestic sales entered formal operation. 7. Cancel the manual issuance and start the printer to print the passenger's flight voucher. 8. Cancel paper tickets and activate e-tickets. Since its establishment in 2000, TravelSky Technology Limited has monopolized the network information services of China's civil aviation industry. There are many civil aviation information systems around the world, such as Abacus information system, AMADEUS information system, Sabre information system and Galileo information system. This aviation information system has its own advantages. Some aviation information systems integrate a full range of travel services such as hotel reservations, car rental services, visa services, and electronic visa services. The Global Distribution System provided by TravelSky Technology Limited has only a single flight booking system for Chinese customers. For various reasons, the Global Distribution System does not display the flights of some airlines outside of China, which causes a lot of troubles for guests who travel internationally. For example, for guests who need to change planes in Paris, France, they can obviously transfer to the next flight directly at the same Airport Charles De Gaulle. They don’t need to wait until the next day or change to ORY Orly Airport or BVA Beauvais Airport to transfer, but As there is no relevant information in the Global Distribution System, many customers have to change their itinerary. China’s air ticket sales agent, China’s airport operating system and China’s airlines are all use TravelSky Technology Limited’s the aviation information operation system, Because this is the aviation information operation system of TravelSky Technology Limited which is designated by the government, there is no second company to compete with it. If any Chinese airline refuses to use their aviation information system, then this airline will not survive. By the same token, if an airport in China does not use TravelSky Technology Limited’s aviation information system, then the airport will be paralyzed; air ticket sales agents, airlines, and airports have to purchase special needles provided by TravelSky Technology Limited. Type printer, this kind of printer only needs more than 1,000 yuan to buy a brand new printer in China’s computer technology market. However, it was transformed by TravelSky Technology Limited and installed a "special chip", and transformed into a printer with a price of 6200-6500 China Yuan. It is not enough for a business office to use only one ticket printer, because the airline business needs to print not only domestic airline tickets, but also international airline tickets. TravelSky Technology Limited requires each user to use domestic ticket printers and international ticket printers separately. TravelSky Technology Limited not only requires users to use printers separately, but also requires separate use of computer information systems. TravelSky Technology Limited charges a monthly service fee of 1,200 yuan for each computer information system. A printer is regarded as a computer information terminal, and the same fee is also charged every month. Therefore, in order to meet business needs, a ticket service department must have at least two computers, one is using the domestic flight information system, another one is using the international flight information system, and at least two printers dedicated to passenger tickets, a domestic ticket printer, and an international ticket printer. Pay at least 4800 yuan to TravelSky Technology every month. If the business volume is large, more fees will be paid to TravelSky Technology Limited. Generally, airlines will give users who sell tickets for their flights ``reservation rewards", which usually become "flight contribution rewards." Abacus aviation information system, AMADEUS aviation information system, Sabre aviation information system and Galileo aviation information  system, these aviation information   systems outside of China, not only provide aviation information systems to users for free, but also give the rewards use to their customers who use their aviation information systems for seat reservation and ticketing. Different aviation information system companies give the user different rewards. Usually, the rewards for a flight segment of international flights range from $1-3, and sometimes more are given. TravelSky Technology Limited not only earns users' fees, but also collects "flight contribution awards' ' from various airlines, without giving users a penny. This is also the privileged industry of the Chinese government. “The most successful being the politically connected, especially the children of high-ranking officials or “princelings'' holding provincial and national offices who used their connections to gain control over public resources and ensure state buyers even for bad products.” The huge profits obtained by TravelSky Technology Limited have flowed into the pockets of these privileged people. --Zhz0 (talk) 04:16, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
