Air China to commence Beijing-Mumbai nonstop

Air China will commence Beijing-Mumbai nonstop service on October 25th, 2015. As the forthcoming only service from Mainland China to Mumbai, it will spare passengers departing from Beijing for Mumbai the trouble of having to make a detour by transferring in Hong Kong, Singapore and Bangkok and make it much easier to get to the “Gate of India”. The one-way flight takes about seven hours. As two BRICS countries, China and India have long had close political, economic and people exchanges. In September of 2014, the two countries released a joint declaration on exploring new areas of cooperation through strategic economic dialogue and beginning the “China-India Cultural Exchanges Plan”. The new Beijing-Mumbai service will go a way towards meeting the ever increasing market demand for air services in the fields of economy, trade, tourism, culture and people exchanges.
