According to China Hospitality News, the fourth-largest carrier in China will operate three weekly flights – every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. The flights will depart Beijing at 18:00 local time and arrive in Phuket at 22:50 local time. The return flight will leave at 23:50 local time and arrive Beijing the following morning at 06:15 local time. The route will be operated with Boeing 737-800 aircraft. The non-stop flights will cut travel time by more than five hours, making it much more convenient for air passengers to the tropical island. Phuket is often dubbed 'The Pearl of the Andaman'. -- Phuket Gazette 2010-07-21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
