Air China is a state-owned airline headquartered in China, founded in 1988. With approximately 10,010 employees, it operates within the Airlines and Aviation sector. Functioning as China’s national carrier, the company is also a member carrier of the Star Alliance, the world’s largest airline network.
Air China recently extended Airbus A350-900 operations on its Beijing Capital – New York JFK route, adding September 23, October 1, 3, and 5 to the previously scheduled September 26, 28, and 30, replacing the 747-8I for these dates. The airline serves this route five times weekly. Separately, on September 4, Air China launched a new direct service from Bucharest's Henri Coandă International Airport to Beijing, utilizing Airbus A330-200 aircraft. On the same day, Zagreb International Airport welcomed the first direct flight from China to Croatia as part of the new Beijing-Zagreb route via Bucharest. This follows the inauguration of Air China's maiden Beijing-Bucharest-Zagreb flight on August 12, which restored direct passenger links between China and Romania after more than two decades and established the first-ever scheduled passenger service between China and Croatia. The three-times-weekly route expands Air China's European network to 27 destinations with nearly 260 weekly flights, and is anticipated to serve as a significant gateway for Croatia's tourism sector, which accounts for approximately one-fifth of its GDP.
