Originally named United Eagle Airlines CO., LTD (simplified Chinese: 鹰联航空公司; traditional Chinese: 鷹聯航空公司; pinyin: Yīnglián Hángkōnggōngsī, also known as UEAir), the company was founded in 2004 by a former executive of China Northwest Airlines, with the necessary funding being provided by the Vickers Financial Group.[3] It took delivery of its first airliner, an Airbus A320 that previously had belonged to Air Jamaica, on 8 July 2005[4] and on 27 July, revenue flights were commenced.[3] Another similar aircraft type, the slightly smaller Airbus A319, was put in service with United Eagle Airlines on 2 December of that year.[4]
In March 2009, Sichuan Airlines invested 200 million RMB (30 million USD) in United Eagle Airlines,[5] thus holding 76 percent of the shares.[3] In late 2009, these shares were sold to Chinese aircraft manufacturer Comac and to Chengdu Communications Investment Group. Following this ownership change, United Eagle Airlines placed a firm order for 30 Comac ARJ21s, the first of which initially was planned to be delivered in late 2010.[6] Since then, the Comac project has seen a series of delays, though.
On 23 January 2010, the airline was renamed Chengdu Airlines.[3][6]
