Wow, AY doubling China flights, amazing! Four times per week!
AY started service to China in 1988, to PEK. Probably less than four weeklies initially, but I would guess that we must be looking at the early 90s to find a schedule where AY has no more than 4 weeklies to China (excl. HKG).
At one point pre-covid/pre-war AY was the 2nd (?) largest European carrier on the CN market. Do I even need to comment?
