China Southern Airlines signed a Memorandum of Partnership with the Guangzhou Asian Games Organising Committee (GAGOC) and became a Partner of the 16th Asian Games.
A signing ceremony was held in Guangzhou and attended by Mr Xu Ruisheng, Executive Deputy Secretary General of GAGOC and Vice Mayor of Guangzhou, Mr Tan Wangeng, President of China Southern Airlines, as well as executives from the Southern Media Corporation (SMC).
The Guangzhou Asian Games will surpass all previous Games in terms of the number of sports, making it the greatest event in the Games' history.
"China Southern Airlines is honoured to join hands with the Asian Games as a key sponsor and part of the greatest Games in history," said Mr Tan. "In 2008, China Southern carried 58,240,000 passengers, ranked #1 in Asia and #4 in the world. We stand proud to be the No.1 carrier in China in terms of passenger volume for 30 consecutive years, the only Top 5 Asian passenger airline in the world as well as the only Chinese carrier being named one of the Top 10 passenger airlines in the world for four years in a row."
As a Partner for the 16th Asian Games, China Southern Airlines provides direct air transportation to most all major Asian Games destinations throughout Asia and the Middle East to Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport including Dubai, Kuala Lumpur, Tokyo and Manila.
Mr Tan stressed, "China Southern is committed to the preparation for the 16th Asian Games by continuously improving cabin, ground and connection services. We believe a safe and comfortable flying journey will give athletes and fans travelling to Guangzhou a very positive impression about China Southern and the 16th Asian Games."
