Air China will resume direct flights between Beijing and Pyongyang from March 30, marking a significant milestone in travel between the two East Asian nations.
China is North Korea's largest trading partner and a vital source of diplomatic, economic, and political support for the isolated nuclear state.
Flight CA121 is scheduled to leave Beijing Capital Airport at 8:05 am (0005 GMT) on March 30 and arrive in Pyongyang at 11 am (0200 GMT), with return flights scheduled for 12 pm the same day.
The flight is scheduled each Monday, with economy class tickets from Beijing available for between 2,340 yuan and 2,930 yuan ($339-$425).
Chinese travel agencies have begun advertising tour packages to North Korea on social media, although there has been no official confirmation of the resumption of tourism.
The first passengers are likely to be students, workers, and those with family ties across the border, while the announcement of flights is 'promising' for tourism, although there is still no confirmation regarding Western tourists.
