Sichuan Airlines Flight Status
About Sichuan Airlines
Sichuan Airlines, based in China, operates under the ICAO code CSC and the IATA code 3U; its radio callsign is "Si Chuan". On this page you can follow Sichuan Airlines flights and find the airports it serves.
How to read a Sichuan Airlines flight number
Every Sichuan Airlines flight number starts with 3U, followed by up to four digits: that is the number on your booking confirmation and boarding pass. In flight plans the same flight carries the ICAO prefix CSC, and controllers address it as "Si Chuan". One thing to watch: codeshares. A ticket sold by another airline can be operated by Sichuan Airlines and vice versa; live tracking follows the operating carrier's number, so if your search comes up empty, check the "operated by" line on your booking.

Frequently asked questions about Sichuan Airlines
Where is my Sichuan Airlines flight right now?
Search the flight number (3U plus digits) in the search box on this page. If the aircraft is airborne within receiver coverage, you will see its live status; before departure you will see the route.
Is my Sichuan Airlines flight delayed or cancelled?
Check the flight number on this page for live status, but for rebooking, gate changes and cancellations the airline itself remains the authoritative source.
What do 3U and CSC mean on Sichuan Airlines flights?
They are two prefixes for the same airline. 3U is the IATA code you see on tickets; CSC is the ICAO code used in flight plans and by air traffic control.
Does Sichuan Airlines operate flights for other airlines?
Codeshare agreements mean a flight sold under another carrier's number may be operated by Sichuan Airlines, and the reverse. Live tracking always follows the operating carrier's flight number; check the "operated by" line on your booking.
