About Air China

Air China is the flag carrier of the People's Republic of China and a Star Alliance member. Beijing Capital International Airport is its main hub, and it has further hubs in cities such as Chengdu. The airline combines a large domestic network with international flights to the rest of Asia, Europe, North America, Australia, the Middle East and beyond. It is a full-service carrier that sells First, Business, Premium Economy and Economy, although not every cabin is on every aircraft. Do not mix it up with China Airlines, which is a different airline based in Taiwan.

For agents handling China traffic, Air China can be searched in the IATA.co booking portal, and developers can request it through the flights API. Air China fares appear in your search results whenever our flight suppliers offer them for your route and dates. The booking amount is taken from your prepaid balance. Beijing has two major airports, so check the airport code on each flight, and review the fare rules before confirming.
