China Southern Airlines
has announced that it will re-launch its European gateway with service each Tuesday and Friday from Amsterdam Airport
Schiphol to Beijing, China with continuing service to Guangzhou, China, starting Friday, August 1. China Southern Airlines will operate this Europe/China service using its
long-haul Boeing 777 aircraft on a code-share basis with KLM Royal Dutch
Airlines.
"We are very pleased to be returning to our European gateway home of
Amsterdam and offer our passengers the most extensive domestic network of any airline in China," said Mr. Wang Changshun, President China
Southern Airlines.
Mr. Wang noted that, "China Southern Airlines temporarily suspended
service to Amsterdam due to the recent outbreak of severe acute respiratory
syndrome (SARS)," but added that, "with the World Health Organization's, removal of its recommendation that people should postpone
all but essential travel to Beijing, China Southern Airlines can again begin
offering its exceptional in-flight services to passengers traveling between
China and Europe." |
