Changi Airport welcomes Xiamen Airlines Zhengzhou-Singapore daily service

SINGAPORE Changi Airport Group (CAG) and the Henan Civil Aviation Development and Construction Committee (HCADCC) welcomed Xiamen Airlines inaugural flight connecting Zhengzhou, the capital of Henan province, to Singapore following the MoU signing of November 2010.


Xiamen Airlines will operate a daily Zhengzhou, Xiamen -Singapore flights on a 169-seat B738 in a two-class configuration. It will take off at 0800 hrs at Zhengzhou, reaching Xiamen at 1000 hrs, leaving at 1100 hrs to reach Singapore at 1515 hrs.


The return flight will depart Singapore at 1540 hrs, arrive at Xiamen at 1930 hrs, depart 2030 hrs for Zhengzhou.


Xiamen Airlines already has two daily services to Singapore - from Tianjin (via Xiamen) and Hangzhou (via Fuzhou). The addition of Zhengzhou to Changi's network brings to six the number of new city links to China established since January 2010, following Guilin, Shantou, Hefei, Qingdao and Nanning.


Changi Airport Group's CEO Lee Seow Hiang said the launch of Xiamen Airlines flight from Zhengzhou to Singapore would not have been possible without the strong support of the Henan provincial government, Xiamen Airlines and Zhengzhou Xinzheng International Airport.


"With the connection to Zhengzhou, Singaporeans will now have the opportunity to visit the Henan, which is rich in cultural and tourism attractions," said Mr Lee.
