First direct flight from China lands at Edinburgh Airport
The first direct flight from China to Scotland has landed at Edinburgh Airport. The Hainan Airlines flight from Beijing is scheduled to run twice a week. It is hoped the route will help attract thousands more Chinese tourists and students. It will also reduce the cost for Scots, who will be able to travel without connecting flights. Two further return flights between the two cities each week will go via Dublin. Airbus A330-300 will fly from Beijing to Dublin and then onto Edinburgh and then back to Beijing on Thursdays and Sundays, flying to Edinburgh and then Dublin and then back to Beijing on Tuesdays and Saturdays.<br/>
