HAIKOU, July 15 (Xinhua) -- A new direct air route was launched Monday between Haikou, capital city of south China's Hainan Province, and Cambodia's port city of Sihanoukville.
The first HU471 flight of Hainan Airlines left Haikou Meilan International Airport at 7:20 p.m. Beijing Time Monday and is scheduled to arrive at Sihanoukville International Airport at 8:20 p.m. local time the same day.
Three round trips are scheduled every week on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
