Air China 737-800
Air China generally serves Sapporo New Chitose using Boeing 737-800s.

Starting from September 30, 2024, Air China will increase the frequency of its Beijing Capital – Sapporo New Chitose route from the current four weekly rotations to daily.

The airline will add Monday, Thursday, and Friday rotations to the existing Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday flights, and operate the route as follows:

  • CA169 / Beijing Capital – Sapporo New Chitose / 7:50AM – 12:40PM
  • CA170 / Sapporo New Chitose – Beijing Capital / 1:50PM – 5:25PM

While Air China currently uses Airbus A330-200s aircraft on the route, it plans to return to operating the flights using Boeing 737-800s by the time of the frequency increase.

Air China is the only airline offering non-stop flights between Sapporo and Beijing.
