As part of its mission of connecting the world by offering flights to a wide range of destinations, Capital Airlines will officially launch its Shenyang-Qingdao-Melbourne route, operating three times a week, on Sept. 29, rolling out the carpet for travelers in both hemispheres to discover the other side of the world.
Deploying an Airbus A330 aircraft, Capital Airlines will provide travelers with a comfortable journey to the other hemisphere, allowing those flying south with the opportunity of sharing the spring season with kangaroos in Australia's Garden State of Victoria.
