The subsidies are aimed at offsetting the losses of domestic airlines, with a cap of 24,000 yuan (about 3,595 U.S. dollars) per hour, it said.
China is speeding up the implementation of a large-scale policy package, which is expected to bring the country's economy back on track amid downward pressure and tackle difficulties encountered by market entities.
The country will implement 33 measures in six fields, mainly fiscal and related measures, to stabilize economic performance, according to a recent State Council executive meeting.
