ZHENGZHOU, Dec. 21 (Xinhua) -- Tianjin Airlines announced Thursday the launch of a Tianjin-Zhengzhou-Sydney flight on Jan. 29, which will be the first intercontinental airline for central China's Henan Province.

There will be two round trips every week, and the one-way trip from Zhengzhou, capital of Henan, to Sydney will take 11 hours.

The airline said the air route would aid tourists from northern and central China to travel in the Oceanian country.

Tianjin Airlines has also partnered with Virgin Atlantic to provide connecting flights to other major Australian cities. Enditem
