China Southern Airlines to resume Guangzhou-Delhi flights after 6 years
With the resumption, the airline will operate more than 100 weekly flights across eight round-trip routes in South Asia
China Southern Airlines plans to restart direct passenger flights between New Delhi and Guangzhou on September 21, 2026, after a six-year hiatus. This marks the airline's return to the Indian market and the third major Chinese carrier to restore services to India, following China Eastern Airlines and Air China. The resumption comes amid improving bilateral ties and a gradual revival of direct air connectivity between India and China.
Daily round-trip flights will operate with one daily flight each, CZ359 and CZ360, using Boeing 737 aircraft. The service aims to boost trade, tourism, student travel, and people-to-people exchanges between the two nations.
