China Eastern is the second largest airline of China based in Shanghai with main hubs in Beijing, Kunming and Xi'an. The airline was formed in 1988 and became the first airline to offer shares on the stock exchange. The government still owns a majority (61%) of China Eastern.
China Eastern Airlines has tried to forge several alliances through the last decades. In 2006 it was negotiating to selling a 24% stake to Singapore Airlines but that deal fell through after China Airlines interfered. A strategic alliance was announced in 2013 with Qantas to set up JetStar Hong Kong, an investment of $200 million, which also not succeeded when the Hong Kong authorities refused to issue the necessary licences. China Eastern did merge with Shanghai Airlines in 2009, a highly successful deal as this reduced the competition between the two Shanghai-based airlines. Shanghai Airlines is now a full subsidiary of China Eastern.
China Eastern has a fleet of more than 450 aircraft and has outstanding orders for another 200. Most of their airplanes are Airbus A320-200 and Boeing 737-800, both are single-aisle airplanes used mostly on domestic routes.
China Eastern Airlines flies to over 124 destinations. Most China Eastern Airlines flights are for destinations in China but China Eastern Airlines has international flights to several other countries as well, like for example Japan and South Korea. From its main base in Shanghai 101 flights depart every week. Many people who look for China Eastern Airlines tickets look for flights to Xi an and Guangzhou.
