New Chongqing civil aviation company gasps chance to distribute regional lines

Why does the Chongqing company develop regional aviation in Altay, Xinjiang? The investor Refon Aviation said that they chose it for its position in the “Belt and Road” Initiative and its rich tourism resources.

Moreover, due to the vast territory and complex geographical condition, regional aviation is necessary for Western China. The road transport from Altay to Kashgar to Karamay may take seven hours or more. With tourism increasing, air transport will be more convenient for travel. The current low air transport capacity also creates opportunities for growth. (Translated by Ma Shuangshuang, Fathom Language Limited)
