Recently, the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) officially approved Air Changan to expand the scope of its business applications. At this point, Air Changan has been granted the rights to operate regional domestic flights to Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan and to develop its route network covering flights to China's neighbouring countries.

Granting Air Changan international passenger and cargo transportation licenses will lay a solid foundation for Air Changan to launch international routes. 

Changan Airlines operates its first flight on 9 May 2016. It is the only local airline in Shaanxi Province under the jurisdiction of the Northwest Regional Administration of CAAC. Since its establishment, it has developed rapidly. It has launched 78 domestic routes and has 59 navigation points, covering 25 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions. In 2017 and 2018, the normal rate of flights ranked first among the national passenger airlines.
