China Eastern Airlines service and technology expansions

Overview

China Eastern Airlines has initiated several service and technology enhancements. The airline first announced a partnership with Nestlé and Starbucks to provide Starbucks-licensed Arabica coffee to passengers in first and business class cabins, building on a long-standing relationship with Nestlé.

Following this, the airline expanded its digital capabilities by partnering with the US-based platform KAYAK. This collaboration integrates the “Ask AI” conversational tool into international booking services, allowing travelers to use natural language to search for flights and compare fares. This move follows the airline’s earlier implementation of AI services in the domestic Chinese market using Alibaba’s Qwen AI model.
