Xiamen Airlines Launches Fuzhou - Sydney Flights

Xiamen Airlines has launched scheduled non-stop flights between Fuzhou and Sydney, and is planning to launch non-stop flights between Xiamen and Sydney on 5 December 2015.

Xiamen Airlines launched non-stop service between Xiamen and Amsterdam in July 2015, marking the opening of the airline's first intercontinental route. The new services to Sydney, operated by Boeing 787-8 aircraft, reduces travel time between the city and Australia to nine hours.

The airline also plans to launch non-stop flights to Melbourne, Vancouver and New York in 2016.

In addition of the new flights to Sydney, Xiamen Airlines has launched a public services tour program by investing 10 million yuan (approx. US$1.6 million ) to support the granting of Australian visas to Chinese youngsters so that they can enjoy a working holiday in Australia, as part of an effort to boost cultural exchanges between the two countries.
