Hainan Airlines has announced on X the launch of new Singapore–Haikou–Changchun flights, commencing September 21. The service will operate four times a week under flight numbers HU447 and HU448.
According to CAPA – Centre for Aviation, air connectivity between Southeast Asia and China has been steadily recovering since early 2023 following the lifting of pandemic restrictions. The analysis indicates that Singapore is increasingly serving as a hub for connecting Southeast Asian travelers with secondary Chinese cities. The introduction of the Singapore–Haikou–Changchun service by Hainan Airlines aligns with this trend, strengthening both tourism and business links while diversifying route options.
As published on Hainan Airlines’ official website, the new route will operate four times weekly on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. The flights will run under the identifiers HU447 and HU448, offering consistent scheduling for both leisure and business passengers. By bridging Singapore, Haikou, and Changchun, the airline aims to connect tropical and northern cultural destinations, enhancing its network appeal.
