China's domestically developed C919 large passenger aircraft landed safely in Ulaanbaatar, capital of Mongolia, on Wednesday afternoon, marking the completion of its first international commercial flight.
At 3 pm, the C919 took off from Beijing Capital International Airport and arrived at Chinggis Khaan International Airport in Ulaanbaatar at 4:58 pm local time. Upon landing, the aircraft was greeted with a water cannon salute — the highest ceremonial honor in international civil aviation.
Starting from Wednesday, Air China's C919 began operating the Beijing-Ulaanbaatar round-trip route, with flight number CA723/4, at a frequency of 7 flights per week.
Currently, domestically produced C909 aircraft operates regular flights on the Hohhot-Ulaanbaatar round-trip route.
With the successful maiden flight of the C919 to Ulaanbaatar, the two types of domestically produced passenger aircraft have now achieved joint operations at an overseas airport, according to People's Daily on Wednesday.
Since the delivery of Air China's first C919 aircraft in August 2024, the fleet has steadily expanded. As of now, Air China's C919 fleet has grown to 12 aircraft, with a cumulative total of over 12,000 safe flights and more than 1.62 million passenger trips carried, the carrier said on Wednesday.
To date, C919 aircraft operated by Air China, China Eastern Airlines, and China Southern Airlines have cumulatively opened 58 routes, served 26 cities, and carried over 7.5 million passengers.
Since entering commercial service on May 28, 2023, the C919 aircraft has made appearances at overseas airshows, with participations in the Singapore Airshow twice and the Dubai Airshow once.

。加拿大总理卡尼表示，已决定暂停与美国的贸易谈判。卡尼称，谈判进展还不足以实现为加拿大国民设定的目标。　　格里尔称，美国已向加拿大提供了“更为优惠的市场准入条件”，若达成协议，本可“大幅降低关税”。但他指责加方拒绝接受，导致谈判破裂。　　美国海关与边境保护局随后发布指引，宣布依据第338条款，对特定加拿大进口商品加征额外关税。
