China Airlines (CI)
China Airlines (CI) flies to 152 destinations in 30 countries. Route counts include codeshare and partner-operated flights sold under the CI code. Leans international: 149 international routes vs 3 domestic.
CI is part of SkyTeam. In practice that means your frequent flyer miles work on partner airlines, you can use partner lounges, and connecting flights on alliance carriers can be booked on a single ticket. SkyTeam partners include Delta, Air France-KLM, Korean Air, and Aeromexico.
CI runs everything through Taoyuan (TPE) with 56 nonstop routes. If you're not starting there, you're connecting there.
China Airlines Hub Airports
China Airlines funnels everything through a single hub. If you're connecting on CI, you're going through Taoyuan. 56 nonstop routes means solid options from there, but no alternatives if that airport has weather problems.
TPEChina Airlines Fleet & Aircraft Types
42 aircraft types appear on CI routes. This includes aircraft operated by partner airlines, not just China Airlines metal. Large mixed fleet across the partner network. What you actually sit on varies by route.
China Airlines Operating Partners
Not every flight with a CI number is actually China Airlines. These partner airlines operate routes under the CI code. Your booking and flight number say CI, but the plane and crew belong to one of these carriers.
On shorter routes from the hubs, this usually means a regional jet. Smaller plane, 2-2 seating, less overhead bin space. Check the aircraft code when you book. If it says E175, CRJ, or ATR, that's a partner regional jet.
