Planes of 9 Air Chinese Airlines fly to Vladivostok now

The first flight plane of 9 Air Chinese Airlines has landed at Vladivostok international airport this week. The flight path from Vladivostok to Yiwu (China) and back will become regular, the correspondent of tvbrics.com reports with reference to visit-russia.ru.

Yiwu is located in the South of China in Zhejiang province, 300 kilometers from Shanghai. Flights from Yiwu will be three times a week. The flight duration is 3 hours and 45 minutes.

9 Air, a subsidiary of Juneyao Airlines, is a budget airline company based in Guangzhou.

One of the reasons for the new flight is the growth of tourist flow from China to Primorye and back. At the moment, China is the leader in the incoming tourist flow to the region.

For example, for the three quarters of 2019, the total number of Chinese citizens who arrived in Primorye amounted to 382.4 thousand people. It is worth noting that Chinese airlines started flying to Primorye last year: Juneyao Airlines, Beijing Capital Airlines and Chengdu Airlines, among them China Southern, the largest Chinese carrier.

Also in 2019, the number of flights from Vladivostok to China increased by 7 percent. As a result, at the moment the capital of Primorye is connected by air with 10 cities of the Celestial Empire.
