The expanded service will bring the airline's total South Caucasus connections to 15 round trips per week. With evening departures from Urumqi, the flights align with inbound services from major Chinese cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, enhancing the Xinjiang hub's role as a gateway to Eurasia.
