According to the Xinhua news agency, Shandong Airlines will commence a new service from Jinan, the capital of Shandong province and a city of approximately five million people, to New Delhi. Flights will operate twice a week with a stop in Kunming, the capital of southwest China’s Yunnan province.
The launch would mark be a significant move for Shandong Airlines, which has previously focused on domestic routes and short-haul international services to Japan, South Korea and Taiwan. It also operates services to Cambodia.
Shandong Airlines is expected to operate the route using its 167-seat Boeing 737-800 aircraft, with a flight time of approximately eight hours, including the stop in Kunming.
