The China Southern Airlines held a themed activity aboard the C919 aircraft on Tuesday to mark the deployment of the passenger jets for this year's Spring Festival travel rush (also known as "chunyun").
All three C919 jets operated by China Southern were deployed on Tuesday, the first day of this year's chunyun, to carry out 10 flights on four routes linking Guangzhou with the cities of Hangzhou, Shanghai, Haikou and Chengdu.
This year's chunyun sees an increased appearance of the home-grown C919 aircraft, a symbol of China's technological and industrial advancement.
