Newly initiated this week on October 16th, 2025 Qatar Airways (QR) and China Southern Airlines (CZ) are expanding their flights and codeshare partnership with one another in hopes to provide passengers with more accessibility and opportunity to travel across more destinations beyond their network.
With Qatar Airways, they will be sharing their code amongst China Southern’s three weekly direct flights that are flown between Beijing Daxing International Airport (PKX) and Doha International Airport (DIA). Going beyond Doha, China Southern will be expanding their code to Qatar operating flights to 15 more destinations across the Middle East, Europe, and Africa which include locations such as:
- Amman
- Athens
- Barcelona
- Cairo
- Dar es Salam
- Madrid
- Munich
With an already existing code on Chinese Southern operated flights between Doha and Guangzhou, they want to build on their existing codeshares and continue to expand into other main cities in China like Chengdu Tianfu, Hangzhou, Shanghai, and Chongqing.
The main goal for Qatar is that they hope for all Chinese Southern passengers to have access to all Qatar Airways routes to China, creating the overall growth and connectivity of their partnership. The Chinese Southern travelers will be getting access through Doha International to over 170 different destinations across the globe via the Hamad International Airport (DOH).
Established by World’s Best Airline, Qatar Airways and Chinese Southern are establishing one of the most extensive networks which gives passengers another incentive to book with these two airlines.
The exciting frequency increase and codeshare expansion showcases the care and attention these airlines are looking to bring for their passengers and others abroad.
