The Asian Games flight is one of the special products that Changlong Airlines has devoted itself to creating. Li Lingxiang, president of Changlong Aviation Business, said, “As an airline, air transport is the first attribute. According to the core demands of Asian Games cities, we launched the first batch of Asian Games flights in May this year, including 10 domestic and regional routes from Hangzhou to Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Chengdu, Chongqing, Urumqi, Harbin, Sanya, Changsha and Hong Kong.”
With the approach of the Asian Games, the radiation range of Asian Games flights has been further upgraded. On the basis of the first batch, 12 second-batch Asian Games domestic and international routes have been added, including Hangzhou to Kunming, Xi ‘an, Shenyang, Dalian, Haikou, Guiyang, Aksu, Delingha, Bangkok and Osaka, as well as Ningbo to Chongqing and Wenzhou to Dalian.
As mentioned above, the dense and abundant Asian Games flights were not structured at will. In addition to provincial capital cities and popular tourist cities, Changlong Airlines also specially set up routes for Zhejiang counterparts such as Aksu and Delingha, aiming at further promoting the cooperation between the East and the West through Asian Games flights.
It is reported that as the only local headquarters integrated passenger and cargo transport airline in Zhejiang Province, Changlong Airlines has always taken “building Zhejiang people’s own airlines” as its own responsibility, integrated social responsibility into enterprise development, brought into play the advantages of the air transport industry, actively opened counterpart assistance, support and cooperation routes between provinces and cities, and contributed “Long Dragon Power” to serving the overall strategic situation of the country.

“The air at the plateau airport is thin, so you need to choose a special model to fly. Therefore, Changlong Airlines invested hundreds of millions of yuan and specially purchased three 319 aircraft suitable for short runway operation. Among them, the first 319 is the’ Hangzhou-Xining-Delingha’ route, which connects the airports in Hangzhou, Xining and Delingha, Haixi, and builds a convenient air bridge, which facilitates the business, culture and tourism exchanges of passengers in the three places, and will help the economic, social and cultural tourism development of Xining and Haixi, and promote the higher quality development of the two places. ” Li Lingxiang said.
