Abstract The signing of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (RCEP) is of great economic strategic significance. To provide reference for airways to develop routes within the scope of RCEP agreement, this paper uses the theory and method of multi-layer complex network to establish an airline network model based on airways, explores the characteristics of RCEP international route network from multiple angles and the contribution of each airways in the airline network. The results show that RCEP international airline network is a scale-free network with multiple cores. All-service airways have improved the air transport efficiency among airports in RCEP international airline network, while low-cost airways are the main force in expanding the coverage of RCEP international airline network.
