Air India has named The Aviation Management Limited as its general sales agent for passenger sales services, reservations, ticketing and marketing initiatives in Mainland China.

Brisbane Airport has commenced an 18-month voluntary, opt-in trial to evaluate tailwind operations in partnership with Airservices Australia and the country’s Civil Aviation Safety Authority. "Greater use of tailwind operations enables more over‑water arrivals and departures, particularly at night, helping to reduce aircraft noise impacts on local communities," Brisbane Airport said. "At all times, participation is voluntary and at the full discretion of the pilot in command."
EVA Air and its sister companies Evergreen Air Cargo Services and Evergreen Airline Services Corp have received Center of Excellence for Independent Validators (CEIV) certification for fresh produce and live animals. The airline also has CEIV certification for lithium batteries.
