The Guidelines on Financial Compensation for Delayed Flights published by the CAAC on June 25, 2004 stipulate that for delays of more than 4 hours, less than 8 hours, or delays of more than 8 hours, airlines are required to provide financial compensation for the passengers in these two cases; the compensation can be made through cash, ticket discounts, and rebates. In the case of delayed flights, in order not to cause new delays, financial compensation is generally not made on-site at the airport, and airlines can use registration, letters and other means to do so; airports should stop travelers from "striking" or "occupying the plane" after a delayed flight to affect the normal flight. Passengers are not entitled to any compensation for delays caused by force majeure. Force majeure reasons include: weather, traffic control, air traffic control, passenger's own reasons (e.g. late arrival, refusal to board the plane). Airline reasons such as: mechanical failure, aircraft deployment, etc. If the delay is more than 4 hours, you will be compensated according to the airline's regulations. Q2. Why can't we use cell phones on the plane? A2. Aviation experts believe that radio waves from cell phones can cause explosions or affect the navigation system of airliners flying at an altitude of 9,500 meters. Scientific evidence also shows that the use of cell phones on board aircraft is indeed potentially dangerous. In addition to the strength of the electrical signals transmitted by cell phones, computers, radios, etc., which can affect aircraft, the frequency of their transmissions, if it happens to be the same or similar to that of aircraft, together with the amplitude (or amplitude of the waves), can cause the most damage. Q3. Why can't we smoke on the airplane? In 1983, the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) issued a regulation prohibiting smoking on passenger flights on domestic routes. This is similar in other countries. In June 1993, the General Administration of Aviation of China decided that from July 1 of that year, smoking would be gradually banned on passenger flights on international routes in China in order to protect the health of the passengers.Q4. What should the elderly pay attention to when traveling by air? a4. The elderly should be careful when traveling, and travel by air should be based on their health condition. For senior citizens or those who are in poor health, they should ask their doctors if they can travel by air and get a certificate from their doctors at the same time. For airlines, they also need to be strict, on the ground, the staff should be asked about their health status. After boarding the plane, the flight attendants will also carefully understand the physical condition of the elderly, for the elderly who are not feeling well, will be required to show a health certificate or by the airport doctor to decide whether it can travel by plane. Experts believe that the elderly, hypertension, diabetes, atherosclerosis and other diseases for a long time sedentary, lower extremity venous blood reflux is not good, easy to form lower extremity thrombosis, which stimulates heart attack, cerebral infarction, pulmonary infarction, resulting in sudden death, sudden death accounted for 10% to 25% of the total deaths, in view of the aircraft's medical equipment is limited, it is difficult to resuscitate in the most effective time to come. Experts especially remind travelers that previous history of diabetes, high blood pressure, phlebitis is not suitable for long-distance flights, and if you go on a long-distance flight, you should move around in the cabin as much as possible.Q5. Ticketing for childrenA5. Children who have reached the age of 2 and have not yet reached the age of 12 should purchase a child ticket at 50% of the full adult fare, and infants who have not yet reached the age of 2 should purchase an infant ticket at 10% of the full adult fare, and no seat is provided. A child ticket shall be purchased if the child needs to occupy a separate seat. If there is more than one infant per adult, the number of infants in excess shall be purchased as children's tickets. Q6. Can pregnant women travel on airplanes? A6. Factors affecting pregnant women's travel on airplanes are conditions such as low air pressure, low oxygen, and tight space in the passenger cabin. Although studies have proved that it is safe for women to fly during any period of their pregnancy, as a precautionary measure, it is usually stipulated that there is no restriction for healthy pregnant women up to the eighth month of pregnancy to travel on airplanes, except that the certificate of prenatal pregnancy is checked at the time of ticket purchase. Pregnant women who are more than 8 months pregnant should not travel by air under normal circumstances, if there are special circumstances, they should be submitted within 72 hours before the flight by a doctor's signature, the medical unit stamped "diagnostic certificate" in duplicate, which includes the name of the traveler, age, date of pregnancy, expected date of delivery, the travel voyage and the date of travel, suitable for air travel and need special care on board, and at the same time fill out the "application for special travelers to travel by air in duplicate", and then you can purchase a ticket. After the carrier's consent, you can purchase a ticket to take a flight.Q7. Is it possible for a patient to take a flight and what documents are required?A7. "It is better not to go up to the sky if you are sick" is not a bad thing to say, as you are isolated in the air, once an accident occurs, it is often easy for you to miss the best time to save your life. As for those who have been rescued and restored to health, there are also troubles - the rescue process leads to flight delays, emergency landing and other huge economic losses caused by the passengers who conceal their illnesses on board the airplane often regret it. According to the relevant laws and regulations, airlines usually require sick passengers to provide a certificate issued by the hospital (generally known as the "certificate of airworthiness") when purchasing air tickets, proving that their physical condition is suitable for air travel. If a passenger is found to be concealing his/her medical condition, the airline has the right to deny boarding.Q8. What are the regulations for unaccompanied children? A8. Unaccompanied children are defined as children aged 5 years old but less than 12 years old who are traveling alone without an adult. Any child within this age group who is traveling alone by air must apply to the airline for unaccompanied child service. Children under the age of 5 should normally be accompanied by an adult. On domestic routes, unaccompanied children are generally charged 50% of the full price of the applicable adult fare for the purchase of a child's ticket; on international routes, airlines have their own specific regulations on fares. Air China, for example, for transportation on international and Hong Kong routes, unaccompanied children over the age of 5 and under the age of 8 traveling on Air China flights are charged the full price of the applicable adult fare. Some airlines limit the number of unaccompanied children they will accept on each flight, such as two unaccompanied children on some flights and five unaccompanied children on other flights. For the transportation of unaccompanied children, fares, number of unaccompanied children per flight, age, etc. vary among airlines on different routes and flights. For details, please check with the airline concerned. Some airlines have time limitations on the procedures for unaccompanied children, for example, some airlines limit the application to one week before the flight departure and some airlines limit the application to three days before the flight departure.Q9. Who can't or shouldn't travel by air? A9. The flight process is subject to a variety of factors, such as low pressure, lack of oxygen, weaving in and out of clouds, and bumpy ride etc. For the sake of the passengers' health, it is not advisable for some passengers to travel by air. So for some passengers should not take the plane severe anemia, hemoglobin index in 6 grams or less; severe otitis media, sinusitis, drum lobe thinning, deformity and other causes of hearing serious impact on the person; contact with infectious diseases, such as open tuberculosis, acute bacillary dysentery, etc. patients; acute cardiac infarction less than 6 weeks after the onset of the person; hypertension with cerebral vascular accidents, such as cerebral hemorrhage in less than 2 weeks of the person; gastric, Duodenal ulcers and bleeding, the duration of the disease is less than 3 weeks, or the amount of blood loss leading to shock; infectious skin diseases or other skin diseases that irritate travelers, such as leprosy and other patients. In addition, the following patients should pay attention to when choosing to fly: severe cardiac arrhythmia, but can fly after medication control, but must be prepared for emergencies; cranial injuries, spinal injuries, recent cerebrovascular accidents, angioneurotic edema involving the larynx, must be accompanied by a medical staff to fly; epileptic patients must be in the control of the symptoms, consult with a doctor before considering flying, so as not to cause a major seizure due to oxygen deprivation during the flight.Q10. Dietary taboos for air travel A10. In order to avoid dizziness, chest tightness, nausea, flatulence, and even vomiting during air travel, three taboos should be noted in the diet before air travel: one taboos large meat and high-protein foods. These foods stay in the stomach and intestines for a long time, digestive difficulties, coupled with people in the air to reduce digestive juices, gastric function becomes weaker, it is very easy to produce gastrointestinal spasms, paroxysmal colic and other diseases. Secondly, avoid eating a lot of crude fiber food, such as beer, soda, soybeans, radish, etc., they are easy to produce gas in the body. As the higher the altitude of the airplane, the bottom of the air pressure, so that the human body bloating and chest tightness, abdominal distension, breathlessness. Avoid eating too saturated empty stomach on the plane, to prevent the stomach, heart overload and hypoglycemia reflect. Q11. A11. When the plane quickly lift, the surrounding air pressure suddenly change, the inner ear tissue can not respond quickly, the air pressure in the Eustachian tube and the outer ear of the air pressure is different, resulting in a momentary obstruction, the phenomenon of hearing desensitization will occur. Usually after a while, the blockage will gradually disappear. There are some ways to help people early relief of this discomfort, such as swallowing, yawning, chewing candies and other actions to help local muscle movement, so that the pressure in the Eustachian tube can be adjusted early. However, people suffering from ear disease or rhinitis may have some inconvenience, such as chronic otitis media, sinusitis, allergic rhinitis, patients with severe wind. Suggestion: If you feel uncomfortable, you can pinch your nose and puff up your eardrums! Or do open mouth or swallowing action.
