Hainan Airlines announced a non-stop service between Chongqing (CKG) and New York (JFK) launching Oct. 20, marking the first non-stop service between a city in the western part of China and New York.
“With the new service, travelers will be able to fly directly from Chongqing to both of the U.S.’s coasts, East and West, via Hainan Airlines. The opening of the new route is expected to significantly facilitate exchanges and collaborations concerning culture, the economy, and politics between the two countries and to further improve Chongqing’s international role as a key aviation hub,” said Wang Shaoping, vice chairman, Hainan Airlines.
The new service is Hainan Airlines’ 13th direct North American service. It will offer round-trip flights twice a week, departing Chongqing on Wednesdays and Fridays at 22:00 and arriving in New York at 0:50 the following day. Return flights depart New York on Thursdays and Sundays at 2:50 and arrive in Chongqing at 6:35 the following day.

Mar 28, 2024Cruise Lines Elevate the Onboard Fine-Dining Experience
It’s been a long time since the food on cruise ships resembled the bland, uninspired fare that gave onboard dining a bad name. These days, cruise passengers can look forward to menus created by Michelin-starred chefs made with top-quality ingredients served in stunning spaces. Choices abound as well. In addition to elegant main dining rooms, cruise ships have created a huge array of specialty restaurants that focus not only on perfectly executed traditional European and North American dishes but flavors and experiences from around the globe as well. In fact, meals served aboard cruise vessels have gotten so good, they’re drawing passengers onto ships: According to a recent report by luxury travel planning network Virtuoso, advisors report after Europe (specifically Italy and France), the No. 2 dining destination for travelers is aboard an ocean or river cruise. “This shows how cruise lines have really stepped up their culinary game, with consulting chefs and new restaurants and making that a focal point,” said Misty Belles, vice president, Global Public Relations, Virtuoso.
