Press Room

Dear passengers,

We have recently become aware of criminals impersonating Hainan Airlines customer service personnel and sending fraudulent text messages to travellers. These messages typically involves overcharging passengers for tickets and instructing them to call a phone number to obtain a refund. In some instances, passengers are informed that they can claim a free refund due to flight cancellations, but are required to pay a handling fee. Additionally, travellers are alerted to issues with their bank card and are instructed to contact a phone number to provide authorization, which allows the criminals to access their private information.

To ensure a smooth travel and to avoid unnecessary losses, Hainan Airlines would like to provide you the following tips:

1. Our 24-hour booking service hotline is 95339.
