How do I track my China Southern Airlines flight?

Enter the flight number at the top of this page, for example CZ1234. You will see the status, expected time, gate and terminal. If the aircraft is airborne right now, it also appears on the map above.

What do CZ and CSN mean?

CZ is the code on your ticket and in the flight number. CSN is the callsign the crew uses on the radio and the code the aircraft shows on radar.

Does China Southern Airlines fly to United States?

Yes. China Southern Airlines has 3 connections to United States, making it the best-served country outside its home market. The route map above shows exactly which ones.

Which airlines fly the same routes as China Southern Airlines?

On 17 connections you will also find Shenzhen Airlines, on 8 Hainan Airlines and on 8 UPS Airlines. Useful if you are looking for an alternative on the same route.

My flight is not on the map. Why not?

The map shows aircraft that are airborne right now and broadcasting their position. An aircraft still at the gate or just landed broadcasts nothing and will not appear. Coverage matters too: positions come from volunteer-run ADS-B receivers, and there are gaps over oceans and sparsely populated regions. Search by flight number instead: that page works even when the aircraft is on the ground or briefly out of range.

Where does this data come from?

Connections are derived from observed callsign routes and are not an official schedule: they say nothing about which days a route operates. Positions on the map come from ADS-B receivers. Flight status, gate and terminal come from the airports themselves.
