A meeting took place between Samir Rzayev, President of
Azerbaijan airlines CJSC (AZAL), and Ding Tao, the Chargé
d'Affaires of China in Azerbaijan.
The discussion focused on the development of air traffic between
Azerbaijan and China, highlighting the growth in passenger numbers
between the two countries.
It was noted that AZAL currently operates two weekly flights en
route Baku-Beijing-Baku. Starting in 2025, this frequency will
increase to three flights per week to meet growing demand.
The meeting also explored opportunities to expand AZAL's flight
network in China, with potential routes to major cities such as
Guangzhou and Shanghai under consideration. This would further
strengthen bilateral cooperation and provide additional travel
options for passengers.
The discussions emphasized Baku's strategic role as a key
transit hub between China and Europe. Enhancing air traffic is
expected to boost tourism while reinforcing Azerbaijan's position
in global passenger and cargo transportation.
