Tianjin Airlines (GS, Tianjin) has applied to the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) for permission to begin longhaul flights from Chongqing to Vancouver Int'l, Canada via Tianjin in June next year.

The carrier plans to operate the route 4x weekly using A330 equipment. Should it secure the official greenlight, it would become the second Hainan Airlines (HU, Haikou) subsidiary to operate intercontinental services after Capital Airlines (China) (JD, Beijing Capital) which launched flights to Europe this past summer.

Tianjin Airlines currently operates a fleeet of eighteen A320-200s, fifty EMB-190s, and twenty-two ERJ-145s on flights across China as well as to Japan, Thailand, South Korea, Russia, and Taiwan
