Air China launches direct flight to Copenhagen
Invest in Denmark together with Copenhagen Capacity has advised Air China in the process of setting up the new route. In particular, Invest in Denmark and Copenhagen Capacity played an active part in relation to questions pertaining to local staff, logistics and accommodation for cabin crew – from assistance in visa application and office location matters to meetings with local recruitment companies.
Director of Invest in Denmark Steen Hommel is pleased to welcome Air China to Denmark.
Air China’s new direct flight from Copenhagen to Beijing is great news. Last year more than 110,000 Chinese business people and tourists came to Denmark via Copenhagen Airport. This new route will create even better opportunities for interaction. The route will strengthen Copenhagen as an international hub and provide attractive new business opportunities.
Andy Hao, General Manager of Air China Denmark, also highlights the new connection’s great potential.
We're proud to inaugurate Air China’s first direct connection to the Danish capital. We believe that this new route from Beijing to Copenhagen will give tourists and business travellers better opportunities and strengthen the cooperation between our two nations.
We are very pleased to welcome Air China to Greater Copenhagen. Copenhagen Airport is not only receiving more tourists and business people to Denmark, the airport is also serving as a connection hub for travelers in all of Northern Europe - making Greater Copenhagen the growing hotspot for global logistics.
