Air China to expand direct Budapest-Beijing flights to three
National airline Air China will operate its Beijing-Budapest flights three times a week from April, up from the current two, Budapest Airport (BA) said on Friday.
Air China launched its direct Budapest-Beijing flight in 2015 which had to be terminated due to Covid. The airline resumed its service in the summer of 2022 but suspended it again for a couple of months in March 2023, BA said in a statement. Direct flights twice a week were launched in June last year.
Two Chinese airlines, Air China and China Eastern Airlines, operate currently eight direct flights between Beijing and Budapest. Beside Beijing, the three other cities of Shanghai, Chongqing and Ningbo can be directly reached from Budapest, said BA.
