Star Alliance carrier Air China is to launch four times-weekly services between Beijing and Geneva from May 7.
The non-stop services will operate on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, using a two-class A330-200 aircraft.
Flights will depart Beijing at 1330, arriving into Geneva at 1825, before returning at 2025, and landing back into the Chinese city at 1255 the following day.
There are currently no direct, non-stop services between Beijing and Geneva. The route will be Air China’s 12th destination in Europe, joining cities including Frankfurt, Munich, Dusseldorf, London, Paris, Stockholm, Milan, Rome and Madrid.
The carrier launched flights to London Gatwick in May 2012 (see online news December 5, 2011), and also serves London Heathrow.
