Macau airport adds 58 flights to meet CNY travel demand

The Macau International Airport (MIA) announced that it is gearing up to accommodate the surge in travel demand during the Chinese New Year (CNY) holiday.

The reservation rate for passenger tickets has already exceeded 90 percent, reflecting travelers’ eagerness to embark on their holiday journeys.

To address the increasing demand, Macau International Airport Company Limited (CAM) has partnered with airlines to optimize flight schedules. As part of this initiative, 58 additional regular and charter flights have been arranged. These flights will connect Macau to key destinations, including mainland China, Taiwan, Vietnam, Japan, Korea, and Malaysia.

In addition to expanding flight options, the airport is adapting to evolving tourism trends in Southeast Asia. CAM plans to coordinate with airlines to ensure that flight arrangements align with the latest developments in the regional tourism market.

Earlier this week, Macau authorities projected that the city may record between 5.04 million and 5.36 million cross-border movements during the upcoming CNY period (January 28th to February 4th), with an average of 630,000 to 670,000 people entering and exiting daily.

This represents approximately 3 percent year-on-year growth compared to the previous year. Meanwhile, for the entire year of 2025, the Macau government has forecast a recovery to between 38 million and 39 million visitor movements, approaching pre-COVID levels.
