Belgium, 2017-Jun-12 — /Travel PR News/ — As of next winter season, Hainan Airlines adds a direct flight between Shanghai Pudong and Brussels Airport three times a week. The flights are scheduled on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and will be operated by a Dreamliner 787-9, one of the most modern aircrafts in aviation. Tickets are available for booking as of today (09 June 2017).

Brussels Airport is delighted to see Hainan Airlines operating a new direct route between Shanghai Pudong International Airport and Brussels Airport as of 25 October 2017.

“The non-stop connection Brussels-Shanghai offers both countries new growth opportunities, as it facilitates direct commercial relations and stimulates tourism. Belgians can explore the excitement of the growing Chinese metropole, and Chinese can discover Europe starting in its heart, Brussels. The extensive network out of Brussels Airport to other European destinations and to Africa offers additional opportunities for business travelers and tourists from the Shanghai region”, says Arnaud Feist, CEO of Brussels Airport Company.
