[ April 21, 2026   //   Chris Lewis ]

China Eastern Airlines inaugurated its first-ever service from Xi’an to Vienna on 20 April, the first-ever direct connection between the Austrian capital and the Chinese metropolitan centre. The new route will operate year-round, three times per week, using an Airbus A330-200. The service is expected to carry 12 tonnes of cargo per flight, mostly time-sensitive high-tech goods, industrial components, e-commerce consignments and pharmaceuticals.
