A Phuket-Jinan flight operated by Thai Vietjet Air arrived at Jinan Yaoqiang International Airport on Jan 4, marking the official resumption of the international travel between Jinan and Phuket, Thailand.

The round-trip flights on Airbus A320 and A321 aircraft will be available every Thursday and be able to accommodate a maximum of 180 and 230 passengers respectively. The flight duration is approximately four hours.

The resumption of the Jinan-Phuket route will provide more options for outbound travel for passengers from Jinan and surrounding cities as well as better meet the international travel needs of more passengers.

As Thailand's largest and earliest developed island, Phuket has many beautiful beaches and coconut groves. Here, visitors can explore the colorful streets in Phuket and enjoy the breathtaking sunset views at Prom Thep Cape.

Jinan Yaoqiang International Airport plans to open and resume more international and regional routes in light of the rapid recovery of outbound travel.
