The metro airport line pricing mechanism is for public opinion, the capital airport line is or will be converted to a taxi ticket system, and the new airport line is subject to monthly cards
By the end of september 2019, the orbital traffic line at beijing dahing international airport will be running in parallel with the pilot operation at beijing dahing international airport. Journalists learned from csd that, according to the pricing mechanism for consultation, the base fare for the new airport line was not to exceed 36. 5 yuan/person。
On 26 july, the beijing orbital traffic airport line pricing mechanism (advisory draft) was made public. From this date until 10 august, the municipal development and reform commission and the municipal transport commission jointly organized an event entitled “i am contributing to a dedicated line pricing mechanism at the orbital traffic airport”, which created a special section on the official government website to consult publicly on proposals for a dedicated line pricing mechanism at the beijing track transport airport。
According to the beijing city pricing catalogue, the base fare at the beijing track transport airport is priced by the government. In order to make price management more institutional and transparent, to prevent arbitrary government pricing, and to allow prices to reflect changes in operating costs in a timely manner, the way in which governments set pricing mechanisms and enterprises have the flexibility to set specific ticket prices was explored for the first time in the context of orbital traffic terminal line pricing。
Three possible pricing options for the new airport line
The commission gave three possible pricing cases. Case one is a single vote, 35 yuan/person。
In such cases, considering that the capital airport line price is $25 per person, the new airport line is positioned in the same functional position as the capital airport line, taking into account that a simple ticket form is more suitable for a single air passenger for the purpose of travel, and that the new airport line is also subject to a single ticket system, with a broadly consistent rate of transport with the capital airport, setting the ticket price level at $35 per person。
Under the mechanism, the orbital traffic terminal line at beijing dae-hing international airport may also operate on the basis of operational requirements, with the other two options being the taxi ticket system。
The second case is $35 from the ritzer business district station and the grassbridge to daejing airport, and $25 from shinjing city。
Such cases take into account the modest reduction of the impact of non-airside passenger flows, the balancing of passengers entering the reisawa business zone station with the grassbridge station, and the location of the new city station in the middle of the airport line, where the following fare may be set. This design is characterized by a relatively high start-up price, which reduces the impact of non-air terminal passenger flows in a modest manner and allows for functional positioning of routes, mainly for air passenger services at airports, and a simpler rate of mark-up and relatively lower average fares。
In the case of san lizer, 38 dollars went to the da xin airport station, 34 to the da xing airport station and 22 to the da xing airport station。
Such cases take into account the need for travel in the risa and grassbridge regions, and take advantage of the lead role of the route in the development of the surrounding regions. Based on the previous option, the start-up price level is appropriately reduced, while further refinement of the metering miles is made, the subsequent mileage increment rate is appropriately below the start-up mileage level and the distance is lower, and the following fare is set. The main feature of this arrangement is that starting prices are properly reduced and the markup is more sophisticated, facilitating travel around the reiser business area, and acting as a route-driven area along the route, while grassbridge to daejing airport fare slightly lower than the previous option。
The new airport line allows for monthly cards and business. Tickets
Under the mechanism, the orbital traffic terminal line operators can also propose diversified tickets and fares, depending on the operational requirements of the line, its passenger flow, social requirements, etc., and a commuting preference policy may be developed for the frequent passenger travel on the route。
Depending on the capacity of the operation, in order to better perform the driving role of the route to the areas along the route, to facilitate the use of the dedicated line by the population along the route and airport personnel to travel and avoid idle capacity, the operating company could also study the introduction of various preferential fare policies。
For example, during the initial period of operation of the orbital traffic line at beijing dynasty international airport, the excess capacity allowed for the issuance of special inter-district commuters, such as 60 monthly cards (30-40 per cent of the general fare), 45 monthly cards (35-45 per cent of the general fare), 30 monthly cards (40-50 per cent of the general fare) and 20 monthly cards (50-60 per cent of the general fare). The greater the number of purchases, the greater the margin of preference。
Drawing on the experience of national and international airports, future new airport lines could also offer diversified fares such as business tickets, air-tracked joint tickets, group tickets, daily round-trip tickets, non-peak time slots, advance bookings and baggage consignment tickets. For example, a commercial car is available in the orbital traffic terminal of beijing international airport, which provides a higher quality service for business travellers and allows for the establishment of business tickets。
Watch it
Capital airport line or will be changed to a taxi ticket
According to the beijing road transport airport exclusive-line pricing mechanism, the beijing capital international airport orbital traffic airport special-line could also be adjusted in the future to a one-way ticket system based on the operational requirements of the route, social needs, etc。
Currently, there are two possible methods of pricing. The first of these is $25 for the east straight gate, the t3 and t2 bridges, $10 for the east straight gate and $10 for the t2 and t3 bridges. Mode two, straight door to t3, 24 dollars to t2, 20 dollars to t3, and 24 dollars to t2. Between the direct east gate and the three bridges is $8 and between t3 and t2。
If consideration is given to the proximity of the east straight gate and the t3 and t2 stations, the need for the east direct gate and the t2 bridge and the high load rate and the characteristics of the line during its peak period, a 10-dollar fare can be set at the east straight gate and the t3 and t2 bridge, and the east straight gate (or the t3 and t2 bridge) can still be set at $25; a further refinement of the metering miles on the basis of the previous approach can also be made to reduce the starting price level appropriately。
Release
How do we determine the fare between the two airports
It was stated that, based on the pricing mechanism for consultation, government price management took into account factors and calculated the base fare ceiling based on the formula in the mechanism (the margin between annual operating costs and annual passenger traffic)。
Take the capital airport line and the new airport line, for example。
According to the cost monitoring conducted by the municipal development and reform commission on the airport line in the capital in 2017, the cost of operating the line in 2016 was $319. 04 million, with an annual passenger flow of 1,930,000, and the base fare ceiling of $26. 7 per person in the formula。
In the case of the new airport line, the average annual operating cost for the new airport line from september 2019 to december 2024 was $4. 08 million, with an average annual passenger flow of approximately 11. 18 million, and the base fare ceiling of $36. 5 per person for the line from 2019 to 2024 was calculated according to the formula。
Under the mechanism, the operator of the exclusive line of the orbital transport airport may determine, on the basis of such factors as the operational requirements of the route, the flow of the route, and the social requirements, the application of a single or ticket system for the operating line, with specific fare options (including a start-up mileage, start-up costs, an increase, an increase, etc.) as well as diversified tickets and fare, provided that the various fares are weighted at average and not higher than the maximum base fare level determined by the price management。
The orbital traffic airport line pricing mechanism has also set up price start-up points. When the cumulative annual operating cost of the orbital traffic terminal line is more than 15 per cent and the social satisfaction of the orbital traffic terminal exclusive operating service company is above 90 per cent in the annual social satisfaction survey conducted by the municipal traffic management department, the municipal price management authority may recalculate the base fare according to formulae based on the regular cost monitoring data of the orbital traffic terminal line。
