An aircraft air conditioning system (10) comprises a process air source (12) and an air conditioning unit (14) being connected to the process air source (12) via a process air line (16) and being adapted to cool and expand process air supplied to the air conditioning unit (14) from the process air source (12) so as to provide conditioned air. A mixing chamber (22) of the aircraft air conditioning system (10) is connected to the air conditioning unit (14) via a conditioned air line (20) and is adapted to mix conditioned air supplied to the mixing chamber (22) from the air conditioning unit (14) with recirculation air recirculated from an aircraft region (26), (34) to be air conditioned to the mixing chamber (22) via a recirculation air line (24) so as to provide mixed air. A mixed air line (30) connects the mixing chamber (22) to the aircraft region (26, 36) to be air conditioned and is adapted to supply mixed air provided by the mixing chamber (22) to the aircraft region (26, 36) to be air conditioned. At least one heat exchanger (44a, 44b, 44c, 58, 60a, 60b) is adapted to established a thermal coupling between the aircraft air conditioning system (10) and an external cooling energy source and to transfer cooling energy provided by the external cooling energy source to the aircraft air conditioning system (10)
