China Airlines (CI)

CHINA AIRLINES China Airlines (CAL) is the flag carrier of the Republic of China (commonly known as Taiwan). Although not directly state-owned, the airline is 54% owned by the China Aviation Development Foundation (中華航空事業發展基金會), which is owned by the Republic of China. The airline, with headquarters in and flight operations from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport, flies to destinations in Asia, Europe, North America and Oceania. China Airlines has a strong presence in the Southeast Asia, East Asia, and Northeast Asia. The airline started scheduled chartered flights between Taiwan and mainland China on July 2008. Most flights serving this market are concentrated at Shanghai, Guangzhou and Beijing. China Airlines has operated the Hong Kong route since 1967, which is the airline's most profitable market, generating 13.3% of its NT$121.9 billion revenue in 2006 with over 140 flights flown a week between Taipei, Kaohsiung and Hong Kong. China Airlines' wholly owned subsidiary, Mandarin Airlines, manages regional flights to secondary cities with smaller capacity requirements. China Airlines' cargo division China Airlines Cargo operates CAL's dedicated freighter fleet, and manages the cargo-hold capacity in CAL's passenger aircraft. China Airlines would eventually join SkyTeam in 2011 as announced in September 14, 2010. China Airlines is now in the process of fulfilling all membership requirements. The effective entry date is 28 September 2011. Read more →
