April is rolling around, and with it comes a new schedule for flights in and out of Nanjing Lukou International Airport. There is much change too, with the times of flights altered, in some cases drastically, and others culled entirely. The Nanjinger brings you the complete update…
For the purposes of this article, herein listed are only regional and international flights at Lukou; those pertaining to China to and from Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and all other international routes.
Of particular note, the routes flown by Juneyao Airlines and Vietnam Airlines to Jeju in South Korea and Nha Trang in Vietnam are both discontinued at this time. Both were operating a service on just a few days each week, which was recently cut back. With those now cancelled altogether, the honeymoon period in the travel sector appears over.
