Regular air route to link Zhengzhou, London

ZHENGZHOU - A regular air route will be launched on June 25 between Zhengzhou, capital of Central China's Henan province and London, according to Henan Airport Group on Friday.

The route will be operated by China Southern Airlines. It would offer two flights each week every Tuesday and Saturday. A single trip will take about 10 to 11 hours.

The opening of the Zhengzhou-London air route will help boost trade and cultural exchange between the central Chinese city and the UK while helping Henan open wider to the outside world, said sources with Henan Airport Group.
