While the main area of operation is the domestic Chinese market, Sichuan Airlines also operates routes to neighbouring countries, Europe, Australia and the USA.

Ticket prices and when to buy

Sichuan Airlines is one of the more expensive airlines within China, but especially on international routes you can often find interesting deals, especially between Europe and Australia with a connection in China.

It is therefore worth booking your tickets around 2-5 months before departure.

The airline's official sales channel is the website global.sichuanair.com.

As Sichuan Airlines flies many routes with other competing airlines, it is worth comparing prices, for example via skyscanner.com.
