Regular flights launched between Tokyo Haneda, Beijing Capital airports

Regular charter flights officially launched Sunday between Tokyo's Haneda international airport and Beijing Capital International Airport.

In the opening ceremony at Haneda airport, Chinese Ambassador to Japan Cui Tiankai voiced his hope that exchanges between the two nations in areas of commerce, trade and tourism will be further broadened with the launch of the new route.

Four direct flights, run by Japan Airlines (JAL), All Nippon Airways (ANA) and Air China, will be traveling every day between the two airports.

Beijing Capital International Airport has thus become the second airport in the Chinese mainland that has direct flights with Heneda airport since those were launched with Shanghai Hongqiao Airport in September 2007.
