Tianjin Airlines

Carrier depends on Worldpay's extensive industry experience

A regional airline network with more than 100 aircraft operating from eight bases, Tianjin Airlines provides domestic scheduled passenger and cargo flights all across China, and also connects to Japan, South Korea, Russia and surrounding countries and regions ─ plus allows passengers to directly fly to New Zealand, Australia and the U.K.

The carrier continues to expand their medium- and long-haul routes network to cover more and more metropolises, along with building their domestic routes and international network.

Global payments coverage sought

Tianjin Airlines needed a payments partner with global capabilities to help them enter new international markets. They also prized a provider with deep experience in the airline sector to help inform their payments strategy, and one that offered a wide range of transaction currencies.

Here is how Worldpay has helped Tianjin Airlines since 2016.

Strong partnerships deliver results

The collaborative relationship between Worldpay and Tianjin Airlines is based on reliable international coverage. Tianjin Airlines now competes more effectively with other global airlines, can penetrate new markets and keep costs low.

Worldpay’s integration with the popular and widely deployed Accelya and Amadeus travel-related platforms and technology also helps Tianjin with reduced deployment time. Through a single connection, Worldpay can help extend Tianjin Airlines’ payments offerings in New Zealand, Europe and across Asia.

Tianjin Airlines is a strong advocate of Worldpay’s services. According to Yesong Fang, manager of e-commerce centre, at the carrier, "Worldpay helps us to offer a world-class payments experience to our passengers."
