India and China look to increase their air-travel connectivity with extended services on China Eastern
For the first time in 10 years, Aviation authorities from India and China met in New Delhi to discuss the possibility of better connecting air-travel between the two countries.

De acuerdo con el Ministerio de Aviación Civil, las conversaciones fueron bastante bien en términos de progreso de la conversación sobre la mejora de la conectividad aérea entre los dos países. Las aerolíneas indias han dudado durante mucho tiempo debido a las dificultades que enfrentarían al operar en China, pero las autoridades de aviación de China respondieron positivamente y manifestaron sus intenciones de ayudar a esas aerolíneas a sortear los problemas.

Snickers get involved with China Eastern for Lunar new Year
A plane painted with a giant-sized image of Snickers chocolate landed at the Shanghai Hongqiao airport as part of Mars Incorporated's latest efforts to reach out to the world's largest number of travelers during the upcoming Spring Festival on Feb. 16. Last year, Chinese Lunar Year saw nearly 3 billion airborne trips across China. This year, Mars will seek to cash in on the festival rush by positioning itself as a provider of chocolate bars such as Snickers that, it would suggest, can help tired or hungry travelers to perk up and have fun. Mars has given Snickers a clear market positioning－the company has linked the brand to occasions such as exams, sports and travel.
"We want to associate chocolate with clear occasions and moments in China," said Thomas Delabriere, vice-president of Mars Wrigley Confectionery China. As a chocolate leader in the Chinese market, the company has been accelerating its growth plans, following challenging times in recent years. The scale of the chocolate market in China grew from 17.56 billion yuan ($2.74 billion) in 2013 to 20.04 billion yuan in 2014. But the market value dropped to 19.8 billion yuan in 2015 and further shrunk to 19.79 billion yuan in 2016, according to Euromonitor International, a market research firm. However, last year, the sweets category returned to growth, and was valued at 20.18 billion yuan. The market grew from enero 1 to mid-November last year by 3.9 percent, according to Nielsen, a global market measurement company.
Delabriere, who has been working in China for the last two years after stints in the European markets and the Middle East economies, believes there is a massive potential in the chocolate market in the country. He cited the lower average chocolate consumption in the country as compared to the levels in the United States and European countries. According to Nielsen, Mars leads the chocolate market in China, with 49 percent in 2017 in terms of offline value, followed by Ferrero Group at 25.5 percent. "The China market is one of our key priorities," said Delabriere. "We are committed to invest in this market to grow our business through targeting more high-end consumers, more innovation, more brands, and more communications."
For example, Dove, Mars' high-end brand and the largest chocolate brand by market value in China, has been enriched with matcha and lemon flavors last year, and added value with convenient packaging. It was offered in the form of various gift packages to attract new consumers. Mars' M&M's－which is considered a fun way to consume chocolate－is re-opening its flagship store in Shanghai later this year after a major refurbishment. Other innovations in flavors include Snickers' "spicy" or "crispy seaweed" to meet the local consumers' preferences.
Also, as an increasing number of Chinese consumers have shown more interest in in-store experiences, Mars will set up more pop-up stores nationwide for the Dove brand this year, having tasted success with such a venture at Sanlitun in Beijing last year, said Delabriere. To reach consumers outside of brick-and-mortar channels, Mars has relied heavily on online channels. Mars' online market in China, which takes up 10 percent of its current chocolate sales, has had double-digit growth in 2017 and is expected to grow significantly this year, said Delabriere.

Major Players of China's Inflight Internet
Currently, the global inflight Internet is developing rapidly. There are around 50 airlines providing inflight Internet services and more than 4000 Wi-Fi equipped aircrafts in the world. 80 percent of the North American aircrafts provide inflight Internet services, followed by Europe and the Middle East; and Asian is behind. Compared to the development of Internet and big data, China's inflight Internet is obviously behind the US and other western developed countries. As one of the three largest airlines in China, China Eastern Airlines has realized that the best way to face changes of times is to join the inflight Internet business.
It's obvious that China Eastern is ambitious, and has become the leader on the practice of China's inflight Internet. It has also become the largest and most mature IFEC fleet in China with 73 Wi-Fi equipped aircraft; which not only provide the new Internet experience and service for passengers, but also generate more profits for the airline, especially for the inflight E-commerce. There is no doubt that the new inflight retail based on the Internet flight scene will be the new for inflight E-commerce growth in the future; and differentiated services may be the one of the key points of airlines layout.
This Inflight Shopping Festival is jointly created by China Eastern Airlines and BlueFocus IFEC. BlueFocus IFEC is the very first high-tech enterprise to enter inflight Internet operation in China; it also marks BlueFocus Communications Group stepping into the inflight Internet industry. Founded in 2015, BlueFocus IFEC have independently developed the IFEC operating platform BAO and marketing platform BAM for airlines; it already launched various new marketing strategy based on Internet flight scene with many airlines; and it is the only high-tech enterprise that provides full IFEC channel and operation.
With the development of mobile Internet, passenger's consumption patterns have been migrating to online. New technology is essential to create a new inflight shopping experience, as well as product selection, purchasing, sales and logistics. For the first times, this December, China Eastern has selected more than 30 fancy, special and new products to enter "Air To Home" event based on the big data analytic result of over 10 million passenger's purchase preference. There are not only famous skin care brands Whoo and Wet'n'Wild; but also independent designer brands De Yeen jewels. In terms of purchasing method, in addition to the traditional cabin Magazine Easternmall, China Eastern APP join inflight purchasing for the first time. As to prices, passengers can not only enjoy the lowest price of this event, but also use China Eastern's points to purchase, and earn points through cash transactions. Logistics system is also remarkable, all of the products will be free delivered to passengers' home. The one-stop inflight online shopping experience is created for passengers, which fully shows China Eastern's innovation to closely link the scene value, user experience, sunk points and CRM together.
The number of China's civil aviation passenger is expected to reach 670 million in 2017, this is a large and high-quality inflight consumer group. With the rapid development of China's inflight Internet and the relaxation of in-flight Wi-Fi services policy, a hundred-billion-yuan new retail era of inflight consumption is coming. How to build a perfect one-stop inflight consumer service experience to upgrade the airlines service is a common problem faced by many Chinese airlines. Nowadays, China Eastern Airlines and BlueFocus IFEC are holding hands to take the very first step.

China Eastern Airlines announces daily flights to Australian city of Brisbane
One of China's leading airlines, China Eastern Airlines, announced Thursday it will begin a daily flight from Shanghai to the Australian city of Brisbane in the state of Queensland.
The new service is expected to see 120,000 additional visitors over the next four years coming to Australia, and Premier of Queensland Annastacia Palaszczuk said it will allow even more Chinese tourists to have "access to our best destinations.
"China is Queensland's most valuable and fastest growing international market," Palaszczuk told state parliament on Thursday.

Queensland Tourism Minister Kate Jones was excited about the new flights, and said in a statement obtained by Xinhua that this was part of an Australia-wide collaboration between stakeholders to further welcome guests from China.

China Eastern Airlines denies plans to dispose of Shanghai Airlines
China Eastern Airlines (MU, Shanghai Hongqiao) has denied reports in the Chinese press linking it to the proposed sale of its wholly-owned Shanghai Airlines (FM, Shanghai Hongqiao) unit. The reports had quoted people familiar with the discussions as saying the carrier had approached Beijing about the disposal which would have seen Shanghai Airlines develop into an independent operator. However, in a statement to the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) on Friday, julio 28, China Eastern flatly rejected the claims adding that "it has never had any plan to dispose of its equity interest in Shanghai Airlines". "The information reported in those media reports is therefore inaccurate and incorrect," it said. China Eastern completed its acquisition and takeover of Shanghai Airlines in febrero 2010.

China Eastern Airlines start codeshare flights
China Eastern Airlines will operate Jet Airways' Delhi-Shanghai Pudong and Kolkata-Kuming routes. Naresh Goyal-promoted Jet Airways and Chinese carrier China Eastern Airlines have commenced codeshare flights amid the increasing hostility between the two countries over the construction of a road near Bhutan tri-junction. As part of the codeshare partnership inked earlier, China Eastern Airlines will operate Jet Airways' Delhi-Shanghai Pudong and Kolkata-Kuming routes.
The Jet Airways will operate Delhi-Bengaluru, Delhi-Kolkata and Delhi-Mumbai routes of the Shanghai-based airline. A Jet Airways spokesperson confirmed the commencement of air services by the two carriers from yesterday as part of the reciprocal codeshare partnership. Codesharing allows an airline to book on its passenger on its partner carriers and provide seamless transport to destination where it has no presence. Following this, the Jet Airways customers can now fly seamlessly to Pudong and Kunming cities in China from New Delhi and Kolkata.
Similarly, Chinese passengers will have direct connectivity to Bengaluru, Kolkata and Mumbai from New Delhi through the flights operated by Jet Airways. China Eastern Airlines, which has three subsidiaries as well a cargo carrier and is a member of the global airlines grouping SkyyTeam, operates to 217 destinations through its hub at Shanghai Pudong International airport, which is also the hub for Suparna Airlines, Spring Airlines and Air China. Besides, it has secondary hubs at Beijing, Kunming, Xi'an and Qingdao. The military standoff between India and China began on junio 16 after the Chinese army tried to build a road near the Bhutan tri-junction. India has protested the construction of the road, fearing it would allow China to cut India's access to its north-eastern states.

China Eastern Airlines Corporation Limited Stock Sees The Needle Move -2.21%
The stock closed the most recent session at $29.21 after seeing 6191 shares trade hands. This represents a change of 0.62% from the opening. The closing price represents the final price that a stock is traded for on a trading day. It’s the most up-to-date valuation until trading begins again on the next day. However, most financial instruments are traded after hours, which means that the the closing price of a stock might not match the after-hours price. Regardless, closing prices are a useful tool that investors use to quantify changes in stock prices over time. The closing prices are compared day-by-day to look for trends and can measure market sentiment for any security over the course of a trading day.
Stock exchanges work according to the invisible hand of supply and demand, which determines the price where stocks are bought and sold. No trade can occur until someone is willing to sell a stock at a price that another is willing to buy it at. When there are more buyers than sellers, the stock price will rise because of the increased demand. Conversely, if more individuals are selling a stock, the price will decrease.
On any given trading day, supply and demand fluctuates back-and-forth because the attractiveness of a commodity’s price rises and falls. Because of these fluctuations, the closing and opening prices are not necessarily identical. A number of factors can affect the attractiveness of a stock in the hours between the closing bell and the next day’s opening bell. For example, if there is good news like a positive earnings announcement, the demand for a stock may increase, raising the price from the previous day’s close. It follows that bad news will negatively affect price.
