The outbound flight departs Shenzhen at 02:05 a.m. and arrives in Milan Malpensa at 08:55 a.m. The estimated flight duration is twelve hours and fifty minutes. The return flight leaves Milan Malpensa at 10:55 am and arrives in Shenzhen at 05:00 am the next day for an estimated flight duration of twelve hours and five minutes. The times above are given in local time.
Hainan Airlines has resumed and opened more than 30 international and regional round-trip passenger routes departing from nine cities, including Beijing, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Haikou, Chongqing, Xi’an, Changsha, Guangzhou and Taiyuan. In the future, Hainan Airlines will continue this route in order to meet market demands.
