Shortly after the arrival of these two planes, another all-cargo plane arrived at Zhengzhou airport from Moscow of Russia, marking the debut of the Zhengzhou- Abakan-Moscow air freight route run by Russian airline Aeroflot, which is bound to expand the air cargo network of Zhengzhou airport. Loaded with 27 tons of mails, this plane, after a short stay, departed for Abakan.

就在车厘子包机抵达不久，又一架全货机从俄罗斯莫斯科飞抵郑州机场，标志着由俄罗斯叶罗费航空运营的郑州—阿巴坎—莫斯科货运航线顺利首航，进一步完善了郑州机场货运航线网络。经过机场工作人员高效保障，这架全货机载着27吨邮件飞往阿巴坎。

Currently, there are 31 all-cargo airlines running at Zhengzhou airport with 44 all-cargo air routes opened, including 36 international ones. So far, an international air freight network has been formed, spanning the three economic zones of Europe, America and Asia, covering the world's major economies and supported by multiple destinations around the world.

截至目前，在郑州机场运营的全货运航空公司有31家，开通全货机航线44条，其中国际地区全货机航线36条，已初步形成横跨欧美亚三大经济区、覆盖全球主要经济体、多点支撑的国际货运航线。

It is worth noting that Zhengzhou airport has been approved to build a hub port for international mail services in March this year, marking that Zhengzhou has become the fourth major port of international mail hub in China after Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. With 7 functional ports dealing with the imports and exports of fruits, chilled aquatic products, edible aquatic animals, meat, live animals, mails and drugs, Zhengzhou airport has become an inland airport in China with the largest number of functional ports covering the most comprehensive range of products, providing strong support for the construction of an inland open economy.

另据了解，今年3月，郑州机场获批全国重要国际邮件枢纽口岸，这是继北京、上海、广州后，我国第四个重要国际邮件枢纽口岸。目前，郑州机场拥有水果、冰鲜水产品、食用水生动物、肉类、活体动物、邮件、药品7大口岸，是国内功能性口岸数量最多、种类最全的内陆机场，为河南开放新高地建设提供有力支撑。（祝传鹏/文 赵汉青/译 杨佳欣/播音 何蒙贺/视频 胡瀚泽/海报 李文竞/校）
