It was launched as a subsidiary of China Eastern Airlines in February 2020 and was merged into China Eastern Airlines in September 2024.

History

On 26 February 2020, China Eastern Airlines launched OTT Airlines as a subsidiary to operate Chinese-domestically produced aircraft, in addition to its existing business jet operations. It was originally scheduled to be the first airline to operate the COMAC C919, beginning in 2022.

In June 2020, OTT Airlines received the delivery of their first three COMAC ARJ21s. In December 2020, the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) announced that it had completed a preliminary review of the airline's application for an operating license.

On 31 August 2024, China Eastern Airlines announced that it will absorb OTT Airlines, intergrate it into parent mainline operations. The operation merge effected on September 22, 2024, marking the dissolution of the airline.
