Xiamen Air has its northern headquarters in Beijing and eight branches in Fuzhou, Hangzhou, Tianjin, Hunan, Beijing, Quanzhou, Chongqing and Shanghai, and two subsidiaries in Hebei Airlines (99.47% shareholding) and Jiangxi Airlines (60% shareholding, based on the former Xiamen Airlines Nanchang Branch). Founded on July 25, 1984, Xiamen Airlines is the first airline in China to operate independently as an enterprise. It was established as a joint venture between the Shanghai Administration of Civil Aviation Administration of China, Xiamen Special Economic Zone Construction Development Company (now Xiamen C&D Group) and Fujian Investment Enterprise Company. The shareholders are China Southern Airlines Corporation (55%), Xiamen C&D Group (34%) and Fujian Investment and Development Group (11%). The current chairman of Xiamen Airlines is Zhao Dong and the general manager is Wang Zhixue.

Xiamen Airlines operates more than 320 domestic and international routes from Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport, Beijing Daxing International Airport, Fuzhou Changle International Airport and Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport, with 3,500 to 4,000 flights per week and nearly 25 million passengers per year. Xiamen Airlines' logo is "A Heron Flying High", a well-known trademark in China, and its frequent flyer program is the Xiamen Airlines White Heron Frequent Flyer Program. The airline features in-flight announcements in Mandarin and English, but also in Minnan, which are broadcast by Xia Hui, a former broadcaster for the Central People's Radio station and Xiamen Broadcasting Company.

Xiamen Airlines is now the 19th full member company of the international airline alliance SkyTeam, the first airline in mainland China to join the world's three major airline alliances in addition to the three major state-owned airlines (including China Southern, which withdrew from SkyTeam on January 1, 2019) and Shanghai Airlines, which joined the alliance as an affiliate member, and the fourth full member of SkyTeam in Greater China (the first three being China Southern, China Eastern, and China Airlines, of which China Southern withdrew from the alliance on January 1, 2019).

Xiamen Civil Aviation before the founding of Xiamen Air

[edit]

The history of Xiamen's aviation industry can be traced back to the Xiamen Wutong Civil Aviation Academy in 1928, which was one of the only three aviation academy in the Republic of China at that time.[1]

In 1929, the Zhangxia Navy established the Zengcuo Aun Naval Airport in Xiamen, and in 1932, the Xiamen Office of China Airlines, a joint venture between China and the United States, operated air transportation to various places. Later, the airport was adandoned due to the Japanese invasion of China.[2]

In 1941, during the Second World War, the Japanese who occupied Xiamen built Gaoqi Airport in the east of Gaoqi Village for both military and civilian use. From December 5 of the same year, regular flights between Xiamen and Taipei took off and landed at Gaoqi Airport.[3]

After Japan's defeat and surrender, Gaoqi Airport was taken over by the Nationalist government and converted to a civilian airport on November 1, 1947. on August 24, 1949, the last scheduled Xiamen to Taipei flight took off from Gaoqi Airport to Taipei and then was discontinued (the route was not converted to a regular service until 2006 when holiday charters resumed and after December 2008).[4] For the next 33 years, Xiamen's aviation industry was disrupted and Gaoqi Airport was abandoned after a brief period of military use.[3]

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Xiamen was in a state of war for a long time and had no civil aviation airport of its own because of its location on the front of the Taiwan Strait. At that time, the citizens of Xiamen and overseas Chinese visiting their relatives could only travel by boat or train, and it took a lot of time for Xiamen to communicate with the outside world, a contradiction that became more prominent after the establishment of Xiamen Special Economic Zone. [3]This contradiction was even more prominent after the establishment of Xiamen Special Economic Zone. On January 10, 1982, the Central Military Commission and the State Council approved the construction of Xiamen Gaoqi Airport. In October of the following year, Xiamen Gaoqi Airport resumed flights, relieving some of the demand.[3][5]

However, the airport alone, without base airline operations, still could not solve the problem of Xiamen's capacity shortage. At the opening ceremony of Xiamen Airport, Zhang Ru, Vice Governor of Fujian Provincial People's Government, proposed to Shen Tu, Director of the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), who attended the opening ceremony, that the CAAC and Fujian Province cooperate to establish an airline company, and received support on the spot. Immediately afterwards, the CPC Fujian Provincial Committee assigned Vice Governor Zhang Ru and Vice Mayor of Xiamen City Xiang Zhen to work with Director Wang Dao of the Planning Department of CAAC to study the establishment of an airline company.[6]

Founding

[edit]

On October 16, 1983, the chairman of Aloha Airlines, Chen Qing who is a Chinese American, visited Xiamen to study the plan of establishing a Sino-foreign joint venture airline in Xiamen. Wu Zhongliang, who was involved in the establishment of Xiamen Airlines at that time, recalled that Aloha Airlines even had the intention of moving its base to Xiamen at that time.[7][8]

On January 10, 1984, the Xiamen Municipal Government drafted the "Conceptual Plan and Opinions on Sino-foreign Joint Venture to Operate China Xiamen Special Zone United Airlines Co. Ltd." On January 25, relevant personnel from Fujian Province and Xiamen City also went to the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) to report on the project, mentioning that priority would be given to joint undertakings by CAAC and Fujian Province as long as aircraft and funds were guaranteed. Subsequently, the CAAC, Fujian Province and Xiamen City held a special meeting on the proposed joint venture airline proposal, and finally rejected the joint venture airline proposal drawn up by the Xiamen City Government on the basis of air rights and other issues.[7]

On March 2, 1984, the Civil Aviation Administration of China and Fujian Provincial Government jointly issued the "Approval of Agreement on Joint Venture Operation of Xiamen Airlines Co. Ltd.[7]

Xiamen Air Co. Ltd was officially established on July 25, 1984 as the first comprehensive local airline company and the first joint venture between the central and local governments. Gaoqi Airport.[7]

At the beginning of its establishment, Xiamen Airlines positioned itself as a regional airline, but the investment of 20 million RMB from the three shareholders was not available at the beginning of its establishment, and it only registered with a bank account with 5,000 RMB, without any aircraft and livery.[7]

At 9:55 a.m. on January 5, 1985, a wet-lease Boeing 737 airliner of Xiamen Airlines landed safely at Beijing Capital Airport at 12:27 p.m. after 2 hours and 32 minutes of flight time, which was the first route opened by Xiamen Airlines. In the afternoon of the same day, the company's second route, Xiamen-Guangzhou, was also officially opened, with the participation of Jiang Ping, vice mayor of Xiamen, and leaders of Xiamen Airlines, etc. On January 10, the company opened its third route, Xiamen-Shanghai. In these routes, the aircraft of Civil Aviation Administration of Shanghai flew Shanghai-Xiamen and Xiamen-Guangzhou flights once a week each; the aircraft of Civil Aviation Administration of Guangzhou (the predecessor of China Southern Airlines) flew Guangzhou-Xiamen, Xiamen-Beijing flights and Xiamen-Hong Kong charter flights once a week each. -On February 12, 1985, Xiamen Airlines leased its first 737-200 aircraft, and on December 18, 1985, the third meeting of the first board of directors and the first meeting of the second board of directors of Xiamen Airlines decided to transfer the shares of the Civil Aviation Administration of Shanghai in Xiamen Airlines to the Civil Aviation Administration of Guangzhou, with the same ratio of capital contribution from each party. The agreement of joint venture operation of Xiamen Airlines by the three shareholders and the articles of association of Xiamen Airlines were amended and submitted for approval and became effective on January 1, 1986. On November 16, the first B737-200 aircraft was transferred from Guangzhou to Xiamen as the base of Xiamen Airlines. In November 1987, Xiamen Airlines introduced the second B737-200 aircraft, and in this year, Xiamen Airlines reversed the operating loss of the first three years and made a profit of 3.17 million RMB for the first time.[9][6]

Xiamen Airlines has made innovative breakthroughs in corporate organization, operation and management, and transportation services. At the time of its establishment, Xiamen Airlines was positioned as an independently-accounted, self-financing limited liability company. In 1989, reforms were made to the organization, personnel management, labor distribution, housing system, medical insurance, and employee benefits, etc. In 1997, the contract system for employees was implemented.[10]

On November 16, 1986, the first aircraft of Xiamen Airlines was transferred from Guangzhou to Xiamen to start its operation. In the same year, Xiamen Airlines bid farewell to its losses and opened the curtain on 27 years of continuous profitability.[6] August 8, 1988, Xiamen Airlines took over the ownership of its first new passenger aircraft from Boeing (Xiamen Airlines had previously operated old aircraft sold to Xiamen Airlines by China Southern Airlines and Southwest Airlines). The aircraft was a Boeing 737-25C Advanced (registration number B-2524), the last Boeing 737 classic airliner produced by Boeing Civil Aircraft. The aircraft was retired from service in 2003 and resold to Blue Dart Express in India.[6]

In 1991, the General Administration of Civil Aviation (GACA) approved Xiamen Airlines to adopt "Blue Sky and White Heron" as its corporate logo. In the same year, the Civil Aviation Administration separated the government and enterprises and established China Southern Airlines, and the shares held by the Civil Aviation Guangzhou Administration were transferred to China Southern Airlines.[7]

On August 12, 1992, Xiamen Airlines took delivery of its first Boeing 757-200 aircraft, registered as B-2819, which was also the 100th aircraft delivered to the Chinese civil aviation system by Boeing. This aircraft was retired in 2008 and sold to Blue Dart Aviation who converted the aircraft to an cargo.[11][12]

In 2000, Xiamen Airlines launched the service between Xiamen and Bangkok, which was the first international service of Xiamen Airlines fly as MF897/8. [13]

On July 25, 2012, Xiamen Airlines changed its VI logo for the first time from "Blue Sky with White Heron" to "One Heron Flying High", and the aircraft painting theme was changed from "Reform Music" to "Sea and Sky". The theme of the aircraft painting was changed from "Reform Music" to "Sea and Sky". To upgrade the logo of Xiamen Airlines, the Chinese design master Chen Youjian and TEAGUE, the design team appointed by Boeing, were invited to design, revise and prove the new corporate logo after repeatedly.[14][15]

On December 1, 2018, Xiamen Airlines' last Boeing 757 (No. B-2868) was honorably retired after it's last flight from Shanghai Hongqiao-Xiamen, and since then there has been no Boeing 757 passenger aircraft in Greater China.[16]

2011年6月,廈航總經理車尚輪在天合聯盟年會中正式遞交了加入天合聯盟申請書,該項申請獲得聯盟全部成員一致通過;同年11月17日,天合聯盟正式公佈廈航加入聯盟的詳情,在意大利羅馬正式簽署加入天合聯盟意向書;並於2012年11月21日正式成為天合聯盟的第19位成員,並為聯盟新增了三個航空樞紐-廈門、福州和杭州,是中國大陸除三大國有航空公司(其中廈航之母公司南航已於2019年1月1日退出天合聯盟)和以附屬成員身份入盟的上海航空外首家加入全球三大航空聯盟的航空公司。

On November 17 of the same year, SkyTeam officially announced the details of Xiamen Airlines' membership in the alliance and signed a letter of intent to join the alliance in Rome, Italy; on November 21, 2012, Xiamen Airlines officially became the 19th member of SkyTeam and added three new hubs to the alliance - Xiamen, Fuzhou and Hangzhou making it the first airline in China to join one of the three global airline alliances, in addition to the three major state-owned airlines (of which China Southern, the parent company of Xiamen Airlines, withdrew from SkyTeam on January 1, 2019) and Shanghai Airlines, which joined the alliance as a subsidiary member.[17][18]

2014年上半年,传出河北航空因经营不善将被厦门航空收购。据报道,河北航空近三年的亏损高达10亿人民币,而母公司冀中能源的主业——煤炭收益——亦日益缩水,因此才有出手河北航空的想法。期间厦航曾经辟谣仅仅是输出管理人员。

2014年7月7日,厦门航空内部人员开通的微信公众平台“长乐白鹭湾”发表了一篇关于厦航收购河北航空的文章,称“厦航正大力推进河北航重组项目。目前已与河北省人民政府、河北航空投资集团分别签订了相关备忘录和过渡期协议,派出经营班子顺利完成接管,即将于7月签订股权转让协议,8月完成股权交割。”[19]7月15日,河北航空股权转让协议正式签署,厦航占比99.23%,沈阳中瑞投资有限公司持股0.77%。

2014年10月13日,厦门航空与河北航投签订《股权转让协议》。根据此协议,河北航投按照约定的条款和条件将其所持有的河北航空95.40%股权及其拥有的所有权益全部转让给厦门航空,厦门航空同意按照约定的条款和条件受让,收购金额为人民币6.8亿元。厦门航空将与四川航空集团有限责任公司签订股权转让协议,以人民币0.69亿元收购四川航空持有的河北航空3.83%的股权。截至2017年1月,厦门航空合计持有河北航空99.47%的股权,沈阳中瑞投资有限公司持股0.53%。

2014年8月13日,厦航与江西省人民政府在南昌签署《合作备忘录》,商定在厦航江西分公司的基础上,由厦航与江西航空投资有限公司共同出资成立江西航空有限公司。厦航将持有江西航空60%的股份。

2015年12月,江西航空首飞,并从厦门航空划拨3架波音737-800(注册编号为B-5511、B-5512、B-5566)至江西航空。

两岸包机

[edit]
COVID-19疫情平稳后,2020年5月8日厦航恢复两岸航班

厦门航空对两岸航线的关注可以追溯到1999年6月,厦门航空就与台湾复兴航空签订了一票到底跨航线转机的业务协议,转机地为澳门

2005年,厦门航空获准参与第一次台商春节包机直航,执行广州台北包机任务。2005年1月29日,厦航编号MF881的航班在该天首次接载台商由广州白云国际机场起飞,在上午9时45分成功降落台灣桃园国际机场,厦航客机是仅次于其控股公司中国南方航空公司第二架在台湾着陆的中国大陆的航空公司客机,也是当日最早返回到达大陆的航空公司[20]

2006年,厦门航空作为第二次台商春节包机新增厦门航点的唯一运营航空公司执行了厦门—台北、厦门—高雄航线的包机任务。同年,与台湾立荣航空等公司合作开展名为“华东一条龙”的华东地区台商经厦门、金门往返台湾各城市的空海空联运[21]

2008年12月15日,两岸实现真正直航,同时实现常态包机。厦门航空公司成为厦门、福州和杭州航点的运营航空公司,同时是厦门和福州航点的唯一运营者,执行的航线包括厦门—台北松山、厦门—台中、福州—台北松山及杭州—台北松山航线[22]

自2009年4月18日起,厦门航空执飞新开通的沈阳台北包机航线,这是东北省会城市第一處直航包机點,也刷新當時两岸包机航线最遠紀錄[23]

组建空中客车机队

[edit]

厦门航空于2020年1月16日在其官网发布了一则“2021-2023年A321neo新飞机直租引进采购公告”,其中表示“我公司计划在2021年下半年-2023年采用经营租赁方式引进10架A321neo新飞机。现诚邀各租赁公司前来垂询洽谈。”这是厦航首度确认引进空中客车客机。

而早在2019年下半年厦航董事长赵东就前往法国图卢兹参观欧洲空中客车公司并寻求合作。[24]

2021年10月20日,厦门航空发布“空客A320Neo机型培训”项目进行供应商招募公告,现邀请符合条件的供应商报名。根据公告要求,厦航拟在2021年12月初委托签约的培训机构实施1期符合CCAR-147规范的机型培训,以确保在2022春运开始前有24人完成空客A320Neo机型培训。

2021年10月29日,厦航大股东中国南方航空召开董事会会议,表决通过《关于厦门航空有限公司经营租赁15架A321NEO飞机的议案》,这意味厦航引进空客客机进入全面实施阶段[25]

2021年11月5日,第四届中国国际进口博览会开展首日,厦门航空与CFM国际正式签订33台用于空客飞机的LEAP-1A发动机及相关航材的采购和维修服务协议,总交易金额达18.6亿美元。[26]

做足華東方面,主要依靠杭州基地樞紐,計劃在十二五末在杭州市場佔有率達到25%-30%(目前15%左右),成為杭州第一大航空公司(目前第二大)。

深入中西方面,主要依靠積極開拓中西部航線,并建設長沙分公司,鄭州、重慶基地擴充中心部市場佔有率。

除此之外,廈航逐渐发力洲際航線。自2015年7月开通廈門阿姆斯特丹航線以来,厦航已初步构建起连接欧、美、澳的空中航线网络,并于2015-2018年新开悉尼墨尔本温哥华西雅图(已停办)、纽约洛杉矶巴黎等航点。借助于厦门市“72小时过境免签”政策,厦航陆续推出了行李直挂、中转免费住宿、中转出行秘书等服务,不断提升厦门的国际中转枢纽地位。

劫机与事故

[edit]

The airline has flown safely for 335 consecutive months until the end of 2013, but in 2008, it refused to follow the tower's instructions and even erased its Flight recorder records in an attempt to avoid responsibility for the runway incursions, and was hijacked several times to Taiwan during the 1990s, most of which landed safely, except for the October 1990 hijacking of B-2510, which resulted in a loss of life.

  • On May 12, 1988, flight 8397 from Xiamen to Guangzhou operated by Boeing 737-200 (Regestration: B-2510) was violently hijacked by passengers Zhang Qingguo and Long Guiyun, and finally landed at Taichung Qingquan Heights Airport, which was the first time a mainland civil airliner was directly hijacked to land in Taiwan.[39]
  • On October 2, 1990, the Xiamen Airlines 8301 flight Xiamen-Guangzhou, operated by a Boeing 737-200 (No. B-2510) that had been hijacked to Taiwan, was hijacked after takeoff, and made an emergency landing at Baiyun Airport after hovering over Guangzhou for a period of time. The pilot fought with the hijackers and ran off the runway during the landing taxi, destroying a Boeing 707-320C of China Southwest Airlines and a Boeing 757-200 of China Southern Airlines on the tarmac, killing 128 people, injuring 52, destroying two aircraft, and severely damaging one aircraft.[40]
  • On June 24, 1993, Xiamen Airlines flight 8514 Changzhou-Xiamen, operated by Boeing 737-200 B-2501, was hijacked by passenger Zhang Wenlong with a plastic pistol and spring knife while preparing to land for Taiwan. The pilot acceded to his request based on safety considerations and arrived safely at Taoyuan Zhongzheng International Airport in Taiwan at 15:31 p.m.
  • On November 5 of the same year, Xiamen Airlines flight 8301 Guangzhou-Xiamen, operated by a Boeing 737, was hijacked shortly after takeoff by Hebei national passenger Zhang Hai with wires disguised as explosives and flown to Taiwan, where it eventually landed safely at Taipei Taoyuan Zhongzheng International Airport.
  • On December 12 of the same year, Xiamen Airlines flight 8606 Harbin-Xiamen, operated by Boeing 737-200 B-2516, was hijacked by passenger Qi Daquan with the threat of detonating explosives while flying more than 100 kilometers from Fuzhou to Taiwan, and arrived at Taoyuan Zhongzheng International Airport in Taiwan at 16:04 p.m.
  • On December 28 of the same year, Fujian Airlines flight 518 Ganzhou-Xiamen, operated by Y-7, was hijacked by passengers Luo Changhua and Wang Yuying with a detonator loaded with No. 5 battery and landed at Taipei Taoyuan Zhongzheng International Airport while flying into Zhangpu County airspace[41]
  • Attempted hijackings of Xiamen Airlines flights also took place on November 15, 1996 and June 12, 1999, but further information is not available.[42][43]
  • On May 10, 2002, Xiamen Airlines flight 8336 Shenzhen-Xiamen, operated by a Boeing 737, was hijacked shortly after takeoff by a 32-year-old male assailant with a dagger, who threatened to hijack the flight to Taiwan, but was subdued by the flight attendant and police on board.[44]
  • On the morning of March 12, 2003, Xiamen Airlines flight 8415 Xiamen - Ningbo operated by the once-hijacked Boeing 737-200 B-2516 was hit by a tractor-trailer while leaving the boarding bridge at Ningbo Oak Sheik International Airport, and the engine was later removed and scrapped, but no casualties were caused[45]
  • On the evening of April 30, 2008, Xiamen Airlines' Boeing 737-700 B-2992, while operating flight MF8052, failed to heed the tower's instructions to witness the takeoff of China Southern Airlines flight CZ6621 and mistakenly entered runway 10 without informing the tower to turn around and prepare to depart. By this time, China Southern Airlines flight CZ6621 had already started to take off and accelerate, and found that it was too late for the Xiamen flight to avoid it. After hearing the call from Xiamen Airlines, the SouthJet flight immediately started emergency braking and turned to one side to avoid the situation before the tower gave the order. At 53 minutes and 56 seconds, the aircraft came to a complete stop, with the front wheels of the two aircraft only 35 meters apart. After the incident, the Xiamen flight did not follow the tower's instructions to cancel the flight for investigation, and even erased the black box record in an attempt to evade responsibility. The captain of Xiamen Airlines was eventually suspended from flying and banned from flying for life. The flight operator's rights to operate the flight were also revoked.[46]
  • At approximately 8:00 p.m. on October 1, 2014, Xiamen Airlines' first Boeing 787 passenger aircraft (No. B-2768) was scheduled to operate flight MF8120 from Beijing to Fuzhou and was about to depart from Beijing Capital International Airport for the flight when the bottom of the moving bridge scraped against the upper part of the aircraft's left engine intake fairing during the evacuation process, causing damage to the engine fairing. The aircraft was unable to take off and the passengers were diverted to another Boeing 737-800 (No. B-5302) for the flight, while the damaged Boeing 787 required further repair. [47]
  • On August 16, 2018, XiamenAir Flight 8667 crash-landed at Manila's Ninoy Aquino International Airport in the Philippines amidst heavy monsoon rains. The Boeing 737-800 skidded off the end of the runway. All 157 passengers and crew were unharmed. According to Flightradar24 data, the flight aborted its first landing attempt.[48][49]受此影响,事故飞机停放在该机场供大型飞机起降的06/24跑道上而造成该跑道长时间关闭,至18日中午该跑道才重新开放[50][51]
