It is learned from Ningbo Lishe International Airport that from June 22 on, Ningbo will restore the charted flights to Seoul with round-trips twice a week. The journey will take two hours.

The flight will adopt Boeing 737-800 provided by the low-cost JINAIR. The flight is scheduled to take off from Ningbo at 17:30 and arrive in Seoul at 20:30 local time, and take off from Seoul at 15:30 local time and arrive in Ningbo at 16:30 Beijing time. As there is a one-hour time difference, the journey actually takes two hours.

The restoration of the flight makes it more convenient for Ningbo tourists to visit South Korea, while the low-cost flight makes it possible to reduce the travelling expenses. Previously, there was a charted flight to Seoul by China Eastern in 2007, but it was cancelled in 2008 due to global financial crisis.

Besides, from June on, three new flights will be provided by China Eastern: Ningbo – Xi'an – Yinchuan, Ningbo – Zhengzhou, and Ningbo – Xiamen. A new flight will be provided by Chengdu Airlines: Ningbo – Changsha – Chendu. Capital Airlines and Tianjin Airlines will both open a new flight: Ningbo – Jinan – Hohhot. This will bring great convenience to Ningbo travelers for their summer traveling
