SHANGHAI, Nov. 23, 2022 /Xinhua-AsiaNet/-- In the past ten years, China Eastern has made tremendous progress in high-quality development with its airlines as the core business. At present, it has more than 100,000 employees and is the seventh-largest airline in the world. China Eastern has extended its route network to 1062 destinations in 170 countries and regions around the world, which can provide air travel services for 150 million people annually.

These ordinary people shape new momentum for the development of China Eastern with their experience, participation and witness.

As a five-star captain, he led the team to send "hope" as quickly as possible. When the flight carrying 1.05 million COVID-19 vaccines and syringes was about to arrive in Dominica, the Dominica air traffic controller said "Thank you China, thank the cabin crew, and thank the Chinese vaccine" via the Air-Ground Channel. At that moment, he truly felt the lofty mission and responsibility of his career which narrows the distance between mountains and seas around the world.
