A new route will open next month between Harbin, capital of northeast China's Heilongjiang Province, and Taipei in Taiwan.
Â
Taiwan's Far Eastern Air Transport (FAT) will operate the new route from July 22, with one direct round-trip a week. FAT already has several routes linking mainland cities including Tianjin, Taiyuan, Shijiazhuang, with Taiwan.
Â
The MD-82 aircraft departs each Tuesday at 10:25 a.m. from Taipei and arrives at Harbin at 2 p.m. The return flight leaves Harbin at 3:40 p.m. and arrives at Taipei at 7:15 p.m. the same day.Â
