Nanjing ZSNJ Business Jet Q1 Movements Down 19% YoY; March Crashes 76%, but Gulfstream G450 Remains Top Type
Analysis
AviGo data shows Nanjing Lukou airport Q1 2026 business jet movements at 73 vs. Q1 2025's 90 (−18.9%). March had the steepest decline, crashing from 45 to 11 (−75.6%). Type mix dominated by large-cabin business jets; Gulfstream G450 firmly holds #1 in both periods (full-year 2025 36 movements; Q1 2026 7). Route network highly focused on domestic tier-1 cities and Greater Bay Area (Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Beijing, Shanghai); winter-spring Sanya demand stands out. Full-year 2025 movements 388; monthly average ~32. Whether March's cliff drop is seasonal factor or special-event driven requires subsequent data verification. Confidence ★ (AviGo single source only; pending cross-verification).
