A regular flight linking Guilin, a tourist city in southwest China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, and Kuala Lumpur, capital of Malaysia, will be launched next month, according to the Guilin Liangjiang International Airport.

The maiden flight will be kicked off on September 3, and tickets will be sold at the Thailand-based Air Asia website, with lowest price about 200 yuan (about $28.6).

The flight, with Airbus 320 as its carrier, will take off every Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday.

The Guilin-Kuala Lumpur flight started five years before as chartered flight with no set timetable. The direct flight, managed by Air Asia, is the fourth international flight of Guilin, next to that linking Bangkok, Seoul, and Osaka.
