A long time, "cheap airline" has been a dream of domestic consumers. In the case of state-owned airlines expect prices themselves unsuccessful, people again eyeing the private airlines, hoping they can join a "catfish effect" to break the ice of the high fares.

After this expectation, in the inaugural Spring Airlines launched 199 yuan ultra-low fares from Shanghai to Yantai, has never been stronger. However, the excitement of people may soon be disappointed. Not only because of ultra-low-cost 199 yuan only 13 votes, but the key is to Spring Airlines, represented by private airlines can not afford too busy playing "catfish" role, at best, can only give people a "catfish illusion" only.

Spring Airlines inaugural sensational scenes, so that people could not help think of February 26 this year, and that aircraft had "Okay," the first sign of a Boeing 737-900 aircraft landed in Changsha, brought unlimited reverie: In the private airline to join after that, the state-owned regional airline holding and pattern of world domination of the domestic aviation market, while maintaining the decades has finally been broken; private airlines would like a crazy "catfish" to activate boring under the auspices of the state-owned airline situation, to enhance the efficiency and competitiveness of the entire industry - the most attractive for consumers is that it will bring ultra-low fares, train just after the plane as cheap!

However, the reality tells us a few months, private aviation is not going to do a "catfish", also did not bring any new atmosphere: how the fare is still not changed, after missing the flight is still so arrogant, the concept is still sometimes being price-fixing cartel picked up - we are so looking forward to "catfish", but is a gorgeous "ornamental fish."

Perhaps the "catfish effect" need to be patient. However, consumers have come to realize: cheap airline did not effect occurs regardless of the time, simply because hampered detention camp system and vested interests. Spring Airlines 199 yuan ultra-low fares, "the short-lived show: there is no" catfish "living space in the existing system, the" catfish "Once outcrop, system will quickly lift the stick of" rules "to combat heresy just outcrop ; huge vested interests and entrenched camp, also spared no effort to combat natural showstopper. So, under the dual system and peer pressure, where there will be the civil aviation market, "catfish" in the shelter of it?

This sees clearly the private airlines, willing to do a whitewash "aviation market reform achievements" and "ornamental fish": the private identity, with the industrys monopoly and earn high profits, are sympathetic to the "muffled large fortune," this is their only option at present. Thus, the system is not broken, the major airlines vested interests intact, private aviation also a share, happy.

From shattered expectations "catfish" to the illusion that this process is sufficient to allow consumers to understand: not from the fundamental institutional reforms on the aviation industry, not institutionally independent operators to give aviation aviation space, do not break the vested interests who make the consolidation of monopoly heavy rule status, do not expect any "catfish effect" generated. Civil aviation reform from a real sense of "ice-breaking monopoly", is still a long way off. In fact, under the current system the aviation industry, restructuring worth mentioning, worth mentioning split open private aviation worth mentioning that many of the reform with the name of the "new concept" of gold are not overvalued.
