From the 3rd May 2016 Emirates will expand its services in mainland China with four weekly flights to Yinchuan and Zhengzhou, further developing aviation links between Dubai and China. These services will offer new international connectivity for two of China’s fastest growing cities, and expand Emirates’ destination offering on the mainland to five, including: Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou.

Yinchuan is an economic and trade hub connecting China and the Middle East. Zhengzhou is a major transportation interchange and one of the largest economic hubs for central China. Timings of the new services have been scheduled to allow for seamless connections to many Middle Eastern, European and African destinations.

The route will be served on a Boeing 777-200LR aircraft catering to the needs of the Chinese market with Mandarin-speaking cabin crew on board and a range of popular local cuisine options. Passengers will also be able to enjoy the airline’s award-winning ice entertainment system including Mandarin language movies and music, and a generous baggage allowance of 30kg in Economy Class, 40kg in Business Class and 50kg in First Class.
