Xiamen Airlines to join SkyTeam

Xiamen Airlines, a subsidiary of China Southern Airlines, is planning to join the Amsterdam-based global airlines alliance SkyTeam, according to a company manager.

Zhao Dong, Xiamen's deputy general manager, said the move indicates the airline's determination to gain a greater international presence in the coming years.

"Joining SkyTeam is part of our efforts to further advance international ambitions. Membership will help us transform from a regional airline into a global player," said Zhao.

The airline's application was approved at a SkyTeam council meeting held in Singapore in June, according to company sources.

"If the procedures are well advanced, we will become an official member of SkyTeam later this year,"

Zhao said during the China International Fair for Investment and Trade being held in Xiamen.

Skyteam offers frequent-flier discounts and other services to passengers of its 14 members. The alliance owes its presence in China to the 21 percent market share of its only domestic member, Guangzhou-based China Southern Airlines' membership.

Joining SkyTeam will help generate expected annual revenue of 30 billion yuan ($4 billion) in the coming five years ahead for Xiamen.

The airline reported revenue of 6.6 billion yuan in the first half of this year, an increase of 23.8 percent year-on-year, company sources said.

"We will launch more cooperation and share more flights with other airlines after becoming a member of SkyTeam," Zhao said.

Based in Xiamen, a coastal city of East China's Fujian province, the airline operates most flights departing from Xiamen, Fuzhou, Quanzhou and Wuyishan.

"We are determined to develop Fuzhou and Xiamen into leading transportation hubs in Southeast Asia," Zhao said.

At present, the operation of international flights contributes only 10 percent of the company's revenue, Zhao said.

Boosting its international presence in the years ahead is part of a strategy aimed at meeting the increasing demand that is a result of the regional economic development, Zhao said.

"We will add more flights from Xiamen and Fuzhou airports to provide tailored services for international passengers due to the establishment of the West Coast Economic Zone," he said.

The economic zone, including the coastal cities of Xiamen, Zhangzhou, Quanzhou and Fuzhou along Fujian province, is meant to help accelerate the integration of its economy, transportation system and infrastructure with Taiwan, which lies across the Straits.

"Joining the SkyTeam will also mean we may suffer some losses due to global economic fluctuations. But we have measures planned to avoid such a loss," Zhao said, who declined to provide more details.

In another development, Xiamen Airlines has entered into an agreement with Boeing Co to purchase six of the US company's B787 aircraft, Zhao said.

The planes will be delivered in stages in the late 12th Five-Year plan period (2011-2015) and will be used to launch services to Europe and the US from Xiamen and Fuzhou, the capital city of Fujian province.

Xiamen Airlines currently operates a fleet of 78 aircraft flying 119 domestic and 20 international routes. The airline provides around 3200 flights each week,- according to company sources

XiamenAir's next 20-years ambition


September 22, 2014
According to Sayacinta Airpost:

XiamenAir has outlined details of its next 20-years ambition as it operates its B787 Dreamliner jet, introduces new cabin crew attire colours and opens new routes to Jakarta, Suvarnabhumi and Kuala Lumpur this week.

XiamenAir aims to be one of the main Chinese international airlines operating a fleet of 360 jets, employing more than 400,000 workers, operating daily 1300 flights on more than 300 scheduled route sectors, achieving an annual passenger flow of 700,000,000 and inaugurating 50 more regional and international routes besides operating daily 150 international and regional flights to 40 Asia-Pacific cities in the next 20 years.

In late 2014 and 2015, XiamenAir will receive 6 Boeing B787 Dreamliners which will enable the airline to inaugurate its first North American and European flights to San Francisco from Fuzhou and from Xiamen to Paris.

XiamenAir receives its first B787 Dreamliner B-2768 on 31 August 2014 and operates its first B787 Dreamliner domestic flight from Fuzhou to Beijing Capital on 6 September 2014 followed by the same service on the Xiamen-Beijing Capital route sectors.

XiamenAir's B787 Dreamliner has a three-cabin configuration with a total of 237 seats, four First Class seats, 18 Business Class seats and 215 Economy Class seats. Each seat can recline at 180 Degrees. The legroom of its Economy Class seat measures 84 cm. It enables passengers better relaxation onboard. Each seat has a power point and an inflight entertainment screen. Kids travelling onboard the Dreamliner can watch entertainment shows on XiamenAir's Kids Channel.

By the end of 2014, in conjunction with the introduction of the environmental-friendly Dreamliner aircraft, XiamenAir's cabin crew uniform will change to shades of blue, ending the purple attire which has been in use such 2003.

On 25 September 2014, XiamenAir links Tianjin with Suvarnabhumi via Fuzhou (MF821/MF822) and Tianjin with Jakarta via Xiamen (MF867/MF868). On the same day, it launches indirect scheduled flights linking Zhengzhou and Kuala Lumpur with a one-hour stopover in Xiamen under flight MF847/MF848. It has also opened scheduled flights linking Xiamen with Siem Reap.
