Beijing Capital International Airport and US Houston Airport System Development Company vowed recently to strengthen their co-operation in airport service to enhance economic development in their respective regions, according to China Daily. Hoyt L. Brown, president of the Houston airport system, said his company would share its advanced airport management experiences with Beijing Capital International Airport. Established in 1937, the company has established three airports in Houston. In 2000, the three airports carried 44.4 million passengers, making it the sixth busiest in the world. "With China's strong economy and Beijing's position as host of the 2008 Olympic Games, we are convinced that Beijing Capital International Airport will be a great airport in the future, Brown said. According to forecasts by the American Federal Administration of Aviation, air transportation across the Pacific Ocean will increase at an annual rate of six to seven percent before 2011. This means big business opportunities to all airports in the region, Brown said. Li Peiying, president of Beijing International Capital Airport,agreed with Brown's viewpoint, saying co-operation is a win-win deal. "When a new Boeing 747 passenger plane is put into operation at an airport with a 75 percent loading rate, it can contribute 180 million US dollars to the local economy," he said. Li said the key factor in their development was management. "We must learn from our partners how to operate a modern airport efficiently, how to cut operation costs, and how to better serve our passengers," he added. |
