A new direct flight route connecting Haikou, the capital of China’s southern Hainan Province, with Jeddah in Saudi Arabia was officially launched on Saturday.
Operated by Hainan Airlines, the service offers three round trips per week, scheduled on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays.
Flights departing from Haikou Meilan International Airport leave at 3:40 a.m. (Beijing Time) and land at Jeddah’s King Abdulaziz International Airport at 8:00 a.m. local time. The journey takes approximately 9 hours and 20 minutes.
Return flights leave Jeddah at 1:40 p.m. local time and arrive in Haikou at 4:40 a.m. the next day (Beijing Time), with an estimated flight time of 10 hours.
Jeddah, known as Saudi Arabia’s second-largest city, is also a major tourism hub.
The new air route is expected to offer travelers more convenient travel options while boosting cultural and economic ties between China and Saudi Arabia.
