Chinese airlines have introduced discount tickets to teachers and students in an effort to further expand their market reach during the upcoming summer holiday.
Most airlines have already reduced ticket prices, nearly one month earlier than past years.
China Eastern and Southern Airlines are selling tickets at 40, 50 and even 60 percent off the regular price, while Air China has reduced its tickets by 1,000 to 2000 yuan.
Industry insiders say the preferential treatment is partially because airlines can fix prices within Government-set price ranges and adopt a varied ticket pricing system.
