Air China Increases 2008 Olympic Role with Collectors' World Fair
Communiqué publié le 29/05/2007 à 15h46

Taking a broader role in its 2008 Beijing Olympics partnership, Air China has been appointed the Airline Partner of the 13th World Olympic Collectors' Fair. Co-sponsored by the International Olympic Committee (IOC), the Beijing Organizing Committee for the Games of the 29th Olympiad (BOCOG), and the Chinese Olympic Committee, the Collectors' Fair will be held in Beijing from June 23 to 28, prior to the Summer Games.

More than one thousand of officials and representatives will come to Beijing for the global Fair, which has been named as a part of the Beijing 2008-5th Olympic Cultural Festival by the BOCOG. The World Olympic Collectors' Fair is an important international activity before the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.

Six years ago, in 2001, Beijing won its bid to host the 2008 Olympic Games. In August 2004 Air China was awarded its role as the only Airline Partner of the 2008 Olympic Games. Air China has served the Chinese Sports Delegation for more than twenty years, since the delegation's first Olympic presentation in 1984. Air China and its employees have enjoyed this relationship with China's Olympic teams and are now proud to be sponsors of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.

"We are delighted to be the Airline Partner to the 2008 Olympic Games, and we value this further role as Airline Partner to the World Olympic Collectors' Fair in Beijing before the Games," said Mrs. Zhang Lan, Senior Vice President for Air China. "This cultural event adds to the excitement surrounding Beijing in 2008, and we hope our customers and the community can benefit from this sponsorship."

As China's sole designated flag carrier and the Airline Partner of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, Air China (HKEX: 0753; LSE: AIRC; SSE: 601111) serves 78 domestic and 39 international cities with an extensive network from its Beijing hub, conveniently linking passengers between China and destinations around the world. In North America, Air China serves New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Vancouver with daily non-stop service to Beijing.
