Air China will increase its global network with a new service in
Asia linking the Beijing capital to Pyongyang, the capital of North
Korea. The service will start with the new year, on January 2, 2008,
and will operate three times per week with Boeing 737 aircraft.
This Beijing-Pyongyang addition will bring Air China's
international network to a total of 72 individual routes from 2008.
The Pyongyang launch is the most recent in Air China's growing
network. In the current quarter Air China initiated nonstop service on
the Beijing-Sydney sector, increasing its Australia presence, as well
as on the Beijing-Macao route, adding service to the booming Pearl
River delta area that includes Hong Kong, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou.
"We are excited to offer our customers this excellent new route
for travel between China and North Korea," said Mrs. Lan Zhang, Vice
President of Air China. "The new route between the two capital cities
will benefit the cultural, educational, and technology ties between
the two countries and will help connect North Korea to the world. The
route will also make it more convenient for passengers from Europe,
North America, and Japan to reach North Korea, whatever their need.
Air China is glad to provide this service."
With the Pyongyang launch, passengers can reach 28 countries and
43 cities by choosing Air China's 72 international and regional routes
across its strong global network. Air China also cooperates with more
than twenty prestigious airlines around the world in order to meet
passengers' travel needs and will soon be a member of the global Star
Alliance.
The new service offers convenient afternoon timings and will fly
every Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday.
