Consequently, he made several trips to TTIA to inspect pedestrian flow lines for arriving passengers, quarantine stations, pandemic prevention fleets, and so forth. He encouraged airport staff to stand resolute and work together to repel the pandemic in anticipation of future days when the airport fills again with hustle and bustle and the sound of human voices. The number of travelers returning to Taiwan peaks in the days before the Lunar New Year. This year that peak coincided with a massive wave of Omicron-variant cases around the world. Facing this double challenge, TTIA upgraded its protective equipment, engaged in even more stringent disinfection, and improved the separated lines of movement. Meanwhile, volunteers from the "Taiwan Medical and Nursing Team," organized by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, helped with a general inspection to strengthen epidemic prevention at the border. Taiwan International Airport Corp. (TIAC), as well as other frontline workers are all playing their special roles in realizing the plan for quarantining travelers arriving on long-haul flights, moving them to their places of quarantine, and cleaning up and sanitizing after them at the airport. These measures were adopted both to keep the virus from entering the terminal and to ensure the nation's safety. Well-planned work schedule Improved passenger and cargo services What's more, TIAC CEO Dann Zhao-bi explains that TTIA took advantage of the pandemic to "reinvent itself," completing various engineering projects and systemizing operations. Take, for instance, the two repaved runways. With regularly scheduled monthly, quarterly, and annual maintenance, airlines will be able At the end of 2021, the United States and mainland Europe saw waves of travelers boarding airplanes once again, kindling hopes for a revival in international air travel after the pandemic. In 2022, as Taiwan prepared to greet its third Lunar New Year during the pandemic, Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TTIA) faced the challenges of epidemic in early January. All frontline workers remained vigilant to assist travelers in safely returning home. Moreover, in the new year, TTIA will leverage the preparations and deployments made during the pandemic into increasing its energy for growth, as it prepares to welcome in a new travel climate. to plan in advance, and more ample time will be provided for runway maintenance. In response to rising volumes of air cargo, TIAC adjusted its aprons to increase the area allotted to the loading and unloading of cargo, and it has coordinated with distribution stations and logistics operators to optimize their operations to ensure that cargo passes smoothly through customs. Meanwhile, TIAC is working to promote the building of infrastructure at the Air Cargo Park so as to expand the airport's capacity as a major cargo hub in East Asia, thus drawing a new blueprint for TTIA's air-cargo operations. A subject of much interest to the nation's people, the Terminal 3 construction is a top priority for TIAC Chairman Lin Kuoshian. According to International Air Transport Association(IATA) estimates, passenger will not recover to pre-pandemic levels until 2024, which happens to be the year that Terminal 3 is expected to go into operation. The terminal will reveal a new face of the national gateway through smartification and cultural diversity. 因應航空貨運需求大增，機場公司主動調度空側 停機坪以增加裝卸空間，並協調集散站與物流業者優 化理貨作業，確保貨物順利通關，同時推動貨運園區 建設，擴增東亞客貨運樞紐機場的處理能量，畫出桃 機航空貨運新藍圖。 而國人關心的第三航廈，也是機場公司董事長林 國顯念茲在茲的重要建設。根據國際航空運輸協會預 估，旅運人次待2024年才能恢復疫情前的水準，而 這也正是第三航廈預計階段性完工營運的第一年，屆 時將以智慧化及文化多元性呈現國門新風貌。 ▲ 桃園機場貨運量大幅提升， 各家航空公司也調動機隊配 合載運。 As air-cargo volumes at TTIA have r i sen great l y, car r ier s have mobi l i zed thei r f leets accordingly. ▲
