Delta and China Eastern Baggage Service in Shanghai<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The “TransChina” baggage transfer service, available on all flights to\/from 96 cities in China via PVG, is operated by China Eastern and its subsidiary, Shanghai Airlines, including Delta codeshare services. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to China Eastern’s support, Delta became China’s first foreign airline to offer this seamless baggage transfer service in June 2018. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, the service was temporarily suspended in February 2020 due to pandemic-related restrictions. However, Delta is now proud to resume this convenient service, making it the first foreign airline to do so, starting July 17, 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Delta’s President of China, Wong Hong, expressed his gratitude for the partnership with China Eastern. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He stated, “Thanks to the partnership with China Eastern, we can benefit our mutual customers who fly between the U.S. and China via Pudong Airport. We continue to work together to create a better travel experience for our customers in China and the U.S.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
