XIAMEN, May 29 (Xinhua) -- An air cargo route linking southeast China's Xiamen city and Spain's Valencia was launched Friday.
A charter cargo flight carrying e-commerce goods and medical supplies such as face masks and gloves for COVID-19 control took off from Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport for Valencia at 1:45 a.m.
The route is operated by Xiamen Airlines as the company's first direct connection to Spain.
According to the carrier, charter cargo flights will operate on the route in the first few months before it becomes a regular route.
The company said the route will promote Xiamen as a logistics center for international e-commerce and help the airline explore the European market. Enditem
