Guangzhou 2010

Guangzhou 2010 - 16th Asian Games   亚运号
Thrilling Games, Harmonious Asia.   激情盛会,和谐亚洲
B-6057 A330-243 China Southern (Beijing branch) 2009-17

China Southern’s home city hosted the Asian Games in 2010. Over 9'000 athletes from 45 National Olympic Committees competed in 28 Olympic sports and 14 non-Olympic sports. China set a new Games record with 199 gold medals. The mascots of the Games were the five sporty rams, whose names, when read together meant the auspicious words "harmony, blessings, success and happiness".

This aircraft was used to carry the Olympic torch across the country. Unlike the 10 PW-powered A330-223 based in CAN, this -243 aircraft is assigned to the Beijing branch and flies mainly domestic and Asian services (like its 5 RR-powered sisterships).
