The C919 (tail number B-657T), successfully completed flight MU5331, landing at Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport after a nearly two-hour journey. Carrying over 140 passengers, the flight marked a historic moment — the official debut of the C919 on the Shanghai Hongqiao–Shenzhen direct route.
This milestone represents the first regular commercial deployment of the C919 to Shenzhen. Both the inaugural outbound and return flights were nearly fully booked.
Beginning May 19, the route operated by the C919 will offer daily service. Outbound flight MU5351 will depart Shanghai Hongqiao at 17:40 and arrive in Shenzhen at 20:05. The return flight, MU5360, will depart Shenzhen at 21:30 and land in Shanghai at 23:55.
