To celebrate the approaching "Holiday Season", Air China will be launching several promotions, including discounted tickets, fuel rebates and additional air miles.

Big Discounts on Airfares

From now until the end of the year, domestic flight airfares will reach record low prices. Tickets for flights from Beijing to Dadong, Taiyuan and a few other cities will average 200 yuan. The airfare for flights from Beijing to Dalian will be as low as 210 yuan, cheaper than traveling by sleeper train.

In addition to low airfares, from November 1 to December 30, 2009, any passenger of 50 years of age or older, who is traveling together with another passenger, will enjoy a discount of 100 yuan for one-way flights over 800 kilometers, and a discount of 50 yuan for one-way flights under 800 kilometers. To activate this offer, passengers must call the Air China Ticket-Order Hotline (4008-986-999) and pay over the phone with a suitable credit card.

Additional Discounts for International Travelers

From November 15 to December 31, 2009, travelers who book round-trip international tickets via Air China's Ticket-Order Hotline will enjoy a 5% discount. If the traveler pays with a China CITIC Bank credit card over the phone, he or she will then enjoy an additional discount of 200 yuan for routes to Europe and North America. Travelers to Japan, South Korea and other Asia-Pacific destinations (excluding Delhi, Dubai, Bangkok and Oceania routes) will enjoy an additional discount of 100 yuan per traveler.

Mileage Accumulation and Fuel Rebates

From November 1 to December 31, 2009, PhoenixMiles frequent flyers, when purchasing international or domestic flight tickets, will accumulate 1 kilometer for every 10 yuan spent on the airfare. When flying internationally, PhoenixMiles members will receive an additional 1 kilometer for every 10 yuan spent on an international airfare. Domestic PhoenixMiles travelers who purchase designated cabin seats will be awarded 408 kilometers for every flight segment.

To show appreciation for the general public's support, Air China will offer a 30 yuan Sinopec rebate to Sinopec Special Card holders, who order domestic flight tickets via the Ticket-Order Hotline.
