Daily flights between Budapest and major world centre in Asia from March!
From the start of the summer timetable, Shanghai Airlines will operate daily flights from China’s biggest industrial city to Budapest. In addition, at least one new destination in southern China is expected to be added to the offer this year.
Daily flights between Shanghai and Budapest
In a statement sent to AIRportal.hu, Budapest Airport said that the Chinese airline will switch from the current three flights a week to daily flights between Shanghai and Budapest. The route will continue to be operated with four-class Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners.
Including the airline’s flights to Ningbo, the expansion will mean a 35% increase in capacity.
With daily flights, the network of China Eastern Airlines, Shanghai Airline’s parent company, will provide even better connections between Budapest and Southeast Asia, New Zealand and Australia.
