Hainan Airlines introduces its second flight to the United Kingdom

Set to continue its global expansion, Hainan Airlines introduces a brand new flight to its network. As of 23 March 2018, the airline launched its direct flight from Changsha to London Heathrow.

March has been an exciting month for Hainan Airlines. Not only have they launched their second flight to the United Kingdom, but they are also launching the following new routes; Shenzhen to Brussels, Beijing to Tijuana to Mexico, Shenzhen to Madrid and now Changsha to London Heathrow.

The new flight to London Heathrow follows on from Hainan Airlines first United Kingdom flight, connecting Beijing to Manchester. Both routes are flown on the Boeing 787 Dreamliner.

The new route will connect Changsha to London Heathrow three times a week; Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Flights depart Changsha in the morning to arrive into Heathrow the same afternoon. While on the return, flights leave Heathrow late afternoon and arrive into Changsha the following afternoon.
