/PRZWT/BEIJING, Sept. 2, 2024 - Summer vacation is coming to an end, and the new semester is about to start. Recently, airports across the country have welcomed a wave of "student passengers" returning to school. As the main force of the civil aviation national team, China Eastern Airlines has specially launched the "Oriental Wanlixing · Student Benefit" series of products, providing direct reduction of domestic and foreign air tickets, convenient boarding, etc., to serve the "school season".
Student fares are directly reduced, and fellow travelers also enjoy equal discounts
China Eastern Airlines' "Oriental Wanlixing · Student Benefit" product has been officially launched on China Eastern Airlines' APP, official website and WeChat Mini Program and other platforms. Student passengers who register for China Eastern Airlines' "Oriental Wanlixing" membership can enjoy a discount of up to 10% on domestic air tickets and 3% on international and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan air tickets after completing the student identity verification through the above platforms.
At the same time, taking into account the travel characteristics of student passengers, China Eastern Airlines also provides additional benefits such as "Domestic Air Wi-Fi Full Standard Voucher" and "Domestic Baggage Voucher". Student passengers only need to complete the student identity verification before August 31 to redeem China Eastern Airlines Air Wi-Fi Internet access rights and domestic 100 yuan paid baggage voucher.
For "college freshmen" who just started school on September 1 this year and cannot complete the student identity verification, China Eastern Airlines also launched the "New Student Special Offer" product from August 26 to September 5. Passengers aged 16 (inclusive) to 20 (inclusive) can enjoy a 50% discount on the purchase of China Eastern Airlines Economy Class Y tickets. Considering that there are many parents of students traveling during the school season, on the above product page, students can add parents and immediate family members as product beneficiaries/companions, and both parties can enjoy the same price reduction discount when purchasing air tickets. In addition, after completing the student certification, current students can also join the "China Eastern Airlines Introducer Program", inviting classmates/teachers/relatives to buy air tickets and carry them. On top of the 20% of the fare amount, they can get an additional 20% of the points reward. These points can be redeemed at the China Eastern Airlines Points Mall for air tickets, VIP lounge breaks, in-flight Wi-Fi and various other goods and services.
Fast check-in + full escort, children enjoy exclusive services by plane
With the arrival of the "school season", the number of group travel students and unaccompanied children has increased. At major airports across the country, China Eastern Airlines recently added a number of exclusive ground services to create a safe and convenient travel experience for returning students.
Recently, at airports in Beijing, Shanghai and other places, China Eastern Airlines has received travel protection tasks from multiple student groups every day, most of which are primary and secondary school students returning to school after the "summer research group" or "summer camp". Considering that research groups often have a large number of travelers and the age of student passengers is generally young, when checking in, China Eastern Airlines will open a caring service counter for it, arrange experienced and warm and thoughtful staff to go through the check-in procedures and guide small passengers to queue up for security inspection. On board, China Eastern Airlines staff will also arrange the cabin seats of the student group and the accompanying teachers/parents in the same area as much as possible according to the seat situation of the flight, so that adults can take care of them and ensure the safety of student passengers.
In addition, near the opening of primary and secondary schools, China Eastern Airlines has further strengthened the ground and air services for unaccompanied children. Parents who cannot accompany their children on the plane can call China Eastern's customer service number (95530) or apply for "unaccompanied children service" when purchasing tickets on China Eastern's official website and APP at least 48 hours before the departure time of the flight. After the children arrive at the airport, China Eastern Airlines will arrange ground service personnel to accompany the small passengers throughout the flight to check in, check in, and go through security checks, and will arrange for child passengers to board the plane first. During the flight, the flight attendant of China Eastern Airlines will become the "temporary parent" of the small passenger, take care of the children's meals, rest, and after safely arriving at the destination, the staff of China Eastern Airlines will hand over the children and carry-on luggage to the "pick-up parent" waiting in the arrival area.
