This year's May Day holiday is from April 29th to May 3rd, totaling five days. It is expected that from April 28th, various passenger stations under Shandong Transportation Group will experience the peak passenger flow during this holiday transportation, which will continue until the afternoon of April 29th. During this period, there will be a relatively dense passenger flow, which will bring a significant test to the transportation capacity of each station.

According to the prediction, the tourism flow, family visit flow, and student flow will be highly superimposed, presenting characteristics such as high traffic flow, high daily peak, and concentrated flow. Based on the current passenger consultation volume and ticket pre-sale situation, all routes within the province are covered and are hot spots with significant growth, especially short and medium distance routes such as Feicheng, Zouping, Chiping, Laiwu, and Shanghe. The pre-sale volume has significantly increased. External routes such as Puyang, Handan, Shangqiu, Xingtai, and Changzhi are more popular.

In order to ensure the smooth travel of passengers during the festival, each station will add manual ticket windows, among which the number of Jinan Long distance Bus Terminal will increase to 23, 48 self-service ticket purchase and collection equipment will be put in place, and some self-service ticket purchase and collection equipment will be transferred to the station square to facilitate passengers to purchase tickets and take the bus. At the same time, the Group's Passenger Transport Management Department will monitor changes in passenger flow at any time and encrypt schedules in a timely manner. During the holiday season, the group prepares more than 500 overtime transportation capacity reserves every day, ready to invest in passenger intensive hot routes at any time. In order to effectively alleviate the pressure inside the station, the bus terminal with the most concentrated passenger flow will add a "Xuefu Temporary Departure Area", establish a temporary class reporting and ticket checking office, achieve a one-stop service of class reporting, ticket checking, and departure, and ensure the smooth departure of regular buses in the shortest possible time.

In response to the characteristics of the festival, various stations have launched various discounts. The bus terminal specially launched the activity of "free travel for model workers to buy tickets". On May 1, all model worker above the municipal level who bought tickets at the manual ticket window of the terminal with valid certificates can enjoy free travel privileges; During Labor Day, teachers, active military personnel, and retired cadres who purchase tickets at the manual ticket window of the West Bus Station can enjoy a 10% discount on tickets with valid documents, while revolutionary disabled soldiers can enjoy half the price when purchasing tickets with valid documents.
