China’s Ruili Airlines begins international service
China’s Ruili Airlines is scheduled to open its first international route March 25 from Kunming to Sihanoukville, using a Boeing 737. The Kunming-based carrier is also scheduled to open 4X-weekly Kunming-Xishuangbanna-Chiang Mai service April 4 and 3X-weekly Kunming-Xishuangbanna-Chiang Rai April 10, both using 737-700s. Ruili said the three new routes launch its international expansion into Southeast Asia and South Asia from Kunming or Chengdu. In the future, the carrier plans to accelerate its international expansion pace by opening new routes to Northeast Asia and North Asia from Shenyang or Harbin, and launching new routes to Central Asia, West Asia and Europe from Lanzhou or Xi’an. When the carrier begins taking delivery of six Boeing 787-9s from 2021, it plans to open intercontinental routes.<br/>
