Air China launches direct Athens flight from Shanghai

Air China has launched a new nonstop Athens flight.

The Shanghai service is the first direct flight between the two cities.

It joins Air China’s current Beijing to Athens flight, which resumed this summer after the pandemic.

Athens International Airport said the flight launch is ‘one of the most important developments for the airport, city and the country.’

“We missed Chinese travellers a lot,”
