Eastern Chinese city Nanjing is to see three new routes open up to the US and Canada within the space of just over a week.
Air China started a Nanjing-New York service via Beijing on November 20 and China Eastern will launch a Nanjing to Los Angeles route and a Nanjing to Vancouver route, both via Shanghai’s Pudong International Airport, starting from November 28.
Nanjing is the capital of Jiangsu province and the provincial government has set up a four-year special fund of almost US$12 million for subsidising international air routes, in their initial stages, especially services to the USA, Canada, Europe and Australia.
