TSN Tianjin

How deep the TSN board really is

The table above says where a courier can fly from TSN. This reads the same 79 destinations back for the questions a dispatcher asks second: how much of the board rests on one airline, how much of it runs less than daily, whether the return leg is as thick as the outbound, what the clock here does to a Gulf working day and which of the destinations shut at night, all of it computed on 2026-09-07 from AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics.

• 46of the 79 destinations are flown by one airline
• 36destinations run less than once a day
• 18destinations have four or more departures a day
• 43%of the destinations name Tianjin Airlines, the largest presence here

Who holds the departures at TSN

31 airlines appear on the TSN board and they do not hold it evenly. Tianjin Airlines is on 34 of the 79 destinations, 43 per cent of them, and on 15 of those it is the only airline flying the sector. The destinations it appears on carry 108.6 of the 183.7 departures a day this airport files, though other airlines fly some of the same sectors, so read that as reach rather than as a share of the aircraft.

The next largest presence is Air China on 28 destinations. 10 of the 31 airlines at TSN appear on a single destination each, which is the long tail every airport carries, and none of it is a rebooking option when the sector you need is the one that fell over.

That is a middling concentration at TSN: one airline on 43 per cent of the destinations and the other 57 per cent spread across 30 airlines. A cancellation inside the Tianjin Airlines network is often survivable inside the same booking, but on the 45 destinations Tianjin Airlines does not touch, a rebooking means moving to a carrier the desk has to check for a through fare first.

How much of the TSN board is daily

Of the 79 destinations, 43 are flown at least once a day and 36 are not, 3 of them running once a week or less. The median destination on the TSN board is flown about once a day.

An average of 0.14 flights a day is the schedule statistic, and it is worth translating it before anything is promised to anybody: TSN to Tokyo (HND) is about one a week, so a missed departure there is not a delay of hours, it is the next slot.

The five busiest destinations carry 45.1 of the 183.7 departures a day, 24.6 per cent of the whole board. The other 74 destinations are spread widely enough that a courier who misses the first departure at TSN usually has somewhere else to look on the same board.

The ten destinations out of TSN where one airline holds the sector and files fewer than seven departures a week, with the weekly figure taken as the average daily rate multiplied by seven rather than as a fixed timetable. 24 further destinations sit in the same position and are listed in the board above.

The way back from TSN

The desk holds the return direction for 26 of the 79 destinations, and a courier plans the way back on those figures rather than on the outbound. On one of them the return into TSN runs thinner than the outbound by more than a quarter. The widest gap is Hangzhou (HGH) at 6.3 out a day against 4.7 back.

It runs the other way as well: Shanghai (SHA) files 9 a day back into TSN against 5.7 outbound, which is the shape that strands a courier at this end rather than at the far end.

The clock at TSN

TSN keeps Asia/Shanghai time, four hours ahead of Dubai all year.

When it is 09:00 on a Dubai working morning it is 13:00 at TSN, so a nine to six day at each end overlaps for five hours. A customs question raised in the last four hours of the Dubai afternoon reaches nobody at TSN until the next morning, which is the practical limit on a same day instruction here.

The night at TSN

1 of the destinations from here carry a documented night restriction of their own, which is a departure time question at this end rather than an arrival problem at the other.

Into Tokyo (NRT) the door shuts at 23:00 local, so the last departure from TSN that lands inside it leaves around 18:52, on a modelled block of 3h 08m. Those one departure times out of TSN are worked backwards from the published window with the block time model this site uses everywhere, 720 to 880 km an hour by sector length with thirty minutes on the ground, so they are arithmetic rather than a timetable and the desk checks the published departure before it promises the landing.

Where TSN turns up on the rest of this site

The airport also sits behind the China country desk, which sets out the customs practice, the working week and the road legs behind this airport.

The site publishes 26 airport pair pages that start or end at TSN, each with the distance, the block time, the carriers on the sector and a door to door clock. The busiest are Tianjin to Guangzhou (CAN), Tianjin to Chongqing (CKG) and Tianjin to Xianyang (XIY).

One courier posting names TSN as the airport a courier here flies from: Tianjin.

To price a movement rather than read the board, the route calculator opens with TSN already set as the origin, and it works out the flying time, the distance and the delivery hour for any of the 79 destinations above.
