Airline Companies Increase Capacity in China

Airline companies from home and abroad are increasing capacity since China began to resume tourism activities with the diminishing of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) fears.

Air China's flights from Qingdao to Seoul will increase to twice weekly beginning August 4, and flights from Beijing to Kuwait resume, operating once a week.

Germany's Lufthansa Airlines will increase its Asia flights at the end of July. It will resume the same number of weekly flights to Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong as before the outbreak of SARS.

Lufthansa will provide daily non-stop flights from Frankfurt to Beijing, and operate larger aircraft in order to offer more seats. It will also resume its original flights from Munich to Shanghai.

"Asia will be the most important market and attractive tourism destination in the future. The demand for aviation has begun to rise in the region," said Thierry Antinori, executive vice president of marketing and sales for Lufthansa.

Austrian Airlines will resume three weekly flights from Vienna to Beijing.
