The agreement on opening new airway between Mongolia and China was reached during the official visit of the Minister of Road and Transport Development to People’s Republic of China.
In the second half of the year, the new airway will be open. To develop the tourism sectors of both countries, the Chinese asked Mongolia to increase the frequency of the Ulaanbaatar-Beijing-Ulaanbaatar flights, and to take action to support a proposal on codeshare between the Mongolian state enterprise MIAT and the Chinese state-owned "Air China". They also requested the Ulaanbaatar-Ulan Ude flights operated by “Hunnu Air” LLC to be extended to Ulaanbaatar-Ulan-Ude-Manzhouli-Ulan-Ude.
MIAT are planning flights to Chengdu and Guangzhou, China. The Minister of Road and Transport Development J.Bat-Erdene emphasized that this is a big step forward expanding tourism, investment and business sectors.
During the Ministers' meeting, a Memorandum of Understanding was signed between the Mongolian Maritime Administration and the Chinese Ocean Administration to cooperate in sharing experiences and training staff and other spheres. As a result, our two countries will cooperate in all areas of transportation sector.
The issues agreed during the visit will be concluded during an expecting visit of Prime Minister U.Khurelsukh to People’s Republic of China.
