China's C909 aircraft operates second regular Central Asian route

en.Wedoany.com Reported - On April 28, China’s Chengdu Airlines' flight EU3055, operated by a C909 aircraft, departed from Kashgar Laining International Airport and arrived at Osh International Airport in Kyrgyzstan. This marks the second regular Central Asian route operated by the C909 aircraft and the first route launched by Chengdu Airlines to Kyrgyzstan. It will further promote economic and trade exchanges and mutual connectivity, supporting Xinjiang in building a golden corridor between Asia and Europe and a bridgehead for westward opening-up. According to reports, the route operates every Tuesday with flight numbers EU3055/56, outbound from Kashgar to Osh and inbound from Osh to Kashgar. Previously, travel between Kashgar and Osh primarily relied on road passenger transport and connecting flights, with relatively low travel efficiency; bus journeys took 10 to 12 hours, while connecting flights required transfers via Urumqi, Bishkek and others, taking over 18 hours end-to-end. The direct flight launched by Chengdu Airlines this time has a flight duration of only about one hour, significantly reducing travel time and costs, and will greatly facilitate the travel of business, tourist, family-visiting, labor service, and transit passengers. Osh is the second largest city in Kyrgyzstan and an aviation hub connecting China, Central Asia, South Asia, and the Middle East. The opening of this direct route will deepen economic, trade, cultural, and tourism exchanges and promote the high-quality development of the joint "Belt and Road" Initiative.
