Key Takeaways
Recovering from the pandemic and a sluggish local economy China Southern began to grow their international market presence in 2024 adding significant amounts of capacity to Europe where the airline has taken advantage of its lower operating costs than other competitors.
Geo-political issues have seen capacity declines to North America, which was a valuable revenue source pre-pandemic for the carrier.
Within the international regional markets, China Southern doubled capacity to both Thailand and Japan as the outbound market shows signs of recovery.
Guangzhou remains the airline's largest base in China, but their presence in the Beijing market continues to develop at Daxing International Airport with aspirations for an international-to-international connecting hub.
