Flights from Manchester Airport to mainland China will return to pre-pandemic levels from next month in what has been described as a 'significant' economic boost for the city region, it was confirmed today.
Hainan Airlines is now flying four flights per week between Manchester and Beijing - an increase from one per week and a return to the pre-Covid schedule.
The airline started flights from Manchester Airport in 2016, with bosses saying the route helped to unlock hundreds of millions of pounds in trade, investment and tourism benefits.
