(Beijing, April 8, 2010): From April 25th, Air China will launch direct flights between Beijing and Jiuzhaigou, and from May 10th direct flights between Shanghai and Jiuzhaigou. As these new direct routes will not pass via Chengdu, flight times will be cut by four hours and ticket costs will be slashed by more than RMB 1,000.
During the launch period, Air China will offer more promotions on ticket prices. In order to provide its passengers with value and convenience, Air China will launch the Beijing- Jiuzhaigou “tickets+ hotels” package and the Shanghai- Jiuzhaigou “tickets+ hotels” package; the prices will be RMB 2,500 and RMB 1,890 respectively.
