A direct tourist charter flight will be launched on January 12 to travel between Zhengzhou, capital of central China`s Henan Province, and Da Nang city.

China Southern Airlines has officially launched a direct flight connecting Beihai and Zhengzhou cities in China and the central city of Da Nang. Zhengzhou, a major transport hub in China, has boosted its connections with tourist destinations worldwide via direct charter flights in recent years.
The routes, with three flights each week on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, will be served by Boeing B737-800M aircraft, the Da Nang Culture, Sport and Tourism Department said.
The direct flights aim to boost tourism, trading and investment links between China and Da Nang.
