Air China has launched a new, non-stop service between Beijing and
Sydney, Australia, from October 22. The service operates three times
per week using Air China's newly delivered Airbus A330 wide-body
aircraft. Additionally, Air China is adjusting its existing services
to Melbourne, Australia, taking its service "Down Under" to ten
round-trips per week for passengers between China and Australia.
The increase in service to the Australian market, using brand-new
aircraft, is a further show of Air China's growth and strength as the
carrier expands to meet China's international travel needs and
prepares for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.
The new service offers convenient timings, departing Beijing every
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 3:30 p.m. (flight CA173) and arriving
in Sydney the next day at 6:15 a.m. (all times local). The return
flight (CA174) departs Sydney every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday at
9:00 p.m. and arrives back in Beijing the next morning at 5:50 a.m.
"We are excited to offer our customers this excellent new option
for travel between China and Sydney," said Mrs. Lan Zhang, Vice
President of Air China. "As China's premier flag carrier, we are
committed to the service and network that China and the global travel
market expect of us. We are pleased to offer this additional non-stop
with our new A330s and show customers that we are working and growing
to meet their needs."
In further network growth, Air China will offer new Beijing-Macau
service, starting November 18, and will increase its Beijing-Bangkok
route to double-daily from December first. For more information, visit

601111) serves 77 domestic and 40 international cities with an
