The airline operates more than 2,000 flights each day to more than 200 destinations out of its main hubs at Beijing Daxing International Airport and Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport, and it was a member of SkyTeam until January 1, 2019.

The airline and American Airlines began a joint frequent flyer program in March 2019. The airline's emblem is a blue tail fin with a kapok flower, which is also the official flower of Guangzhou. Fly toward your aspirations is the company's motto in Chinese.
