China Postal Airlines

THE AIRLINE'S WEBSITE NO LONGER EXISTS, and the two airline citations here are therefore still Internet Archive snapshots from 2023 — the newest that exist. Re-checked on 2026-07-29 and the diagnosis is now precise rather than a timeout: cnpostair.com is still a registered, actively-managed zone (authoritative servers ns1–ns4.35.net, SOA serial 2026072834, an MX at 218.247.135.36 and an SPF/Feishu TXT record), but it publishes NO A or AAAA record for either www.cnpostair.com or the apex, so there is no web host to reach — mail still works, the website is switched off. The .cn variant cnpostair.cn/www.cnpostair.cn resolves but 302-redirects to the hosting provider's "site stopped" notice at stopnote.vhostgo.com. chinapostair.com, postair.com.cn and air.chinapost.com.cn do not resolve. The Internet Archive holds no capture of any cnpostair.com URL after 5 June 2023 (CDX, no collapse, limit=-12 on the root and a from=20230701 sweep of the whole domain, both empty), so 2023-04-04 (s1) and 2023-06-05 (s2) are genuinely the last readable pages and cannot be bettered. IATA still lists www.cnpostair.com as the airline's website (s3, re-read live on 2026-07-29, which also confirms ICAO CYZ / IATA CF). What those 2023 snapshots prove, in the airline's own words, is the only thing this record needs: "中国邮政航空公司(以下简称'邮航')于1996年11月25日成立，1997年2月27日正式投入运营，是国内首家专营特快邮件和货物运输的航空公司" — founded 25 Nov 1996, in operation from 27 Feb 1997, China's first airline exclusively engaged in express-mail and cargo transport — running an "all-night" (全夜航) hub operation with a then-fleet of 22 owned B737 freighters (14 B737-300F, 8 B737-400F) plus 4 leased B757 freighters (s1); the home page lists "出色的货机机队" (an outstanding freighter fleet) among its advantages and its vision as "做快递航空的领跑者", to lead in express air cargo (s2). The 2023 fleet numbers are three-year-old figures and are recorded ONLY as evidence of freighter-only operation, never as current fleet data — the airline has since taken B777Fs and B737-800BCFs and its fleet is materially larger. No passenger service, no cabin, no mobility-aid policy: every policy field below is null by definition, not for want of looking.
