Flights to Manila will depart from Beijing Capital Airport at 8:00 PM on
Monday, Wednesday and Saturday and arrive at 00:55 AM the next day. Flights
to Beijing from Manila will depart at 06:30 AM local time on Tuesday,
Thursday and Sunday and arrive at Beijing at 11:10 AM. A Boeing 738 will be
deployed for all flights on the Beijing-Manila route.

This new route will greatly increase the number of Filipino tourists
visiting China. The Philippine Tourism Authority already has a Beijing
office, and they believe that there is great potential for more Filipinos to
visit China. Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou are currently the most popular
destinations for Filipino tourists, who are interested in Chinese history and
culture, as well as Chinese cuisine.

Air China passengers flying from the Americas and Europe can use Beijing
as a hub for their flights on to the Philippines.
