From March 24 to 26, a delegation led by Ma Bing, Deputy Administrator of CAAC, visited Germany. The CAAC delegation held talks with the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) in Cologne and visited Munich Airport. During the visit, the delegation presented the latest achievements in China's civil aviation development and its vast market potential with the aim of promoting Sino-European cooperation in the aviation sector to jointly contribute to the safe and sustainable growth of global aviation.

At EASA, Ma Bing noted that China and Europe both have the world's largest aviation transport systems and the most dynamic and promising aviation markets. He emphasized that CAAC and EASA should widen exchanges and cooperation, further leverage the China-EU Aviation Partnership Project (APP) to contribute even more to the development of China-Europe relations. Florian Guillermet, Executive Director of EASA, said CAAC is a key partner for EASA, and that deepening collaboration between the two sides holds significant importance for the development of the aviation industries in China, Europe and the rest of the world. Safety remains the top priority for aviation, and enhanced cooperation between Europe and China will help address common challenges and create a better business environment for aviation enterprises of both sides.

During the visit to Munich Airport, the delegation was briefed on Bavaria's thriving economic and trade cooperation with China. The two sides exchanged views on strengthening passenger and cargo service connectivity between Munich and Chinese cities. The delegation also paid a visit to the airport's hub operation control center to learn about management procedures for improving flight operations and passenger transfer efficiency.
