URUMQI, July 16 (Xinhua) — A cargo plane loaded with 3.8 tons of textiles and clothing took off from Urumqi, capital of northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, to Bishkek, capital of Kyrgyzstan, at 9:50 a.m. Wednesday, marking the official resumption of Urumqi-Bishkek cargo flights.

According to the Urumqi Tianshan Airport Customs Office, the air cargo route operates on a fixed schedule on Wednesdays and Fridays. The resumption of air cargo services on this route is an important milestone in deepening the connectivity between China and Central Asian countries and establishing trade and economic cooperation, and will help match high-quality Chinese goods with demand in the Central Asian market.

Deputy head of the said service Liu Jingyi said that in order to meet the needs of air transportation of goods such as clothing and textiles, which are in high demand in the Central Asian market, the airport customs authorities continued to optimize the control and management process, opening convenient channels for fast customs clearance of goods.

According to Zhao Wei, a responsible person at one of the local logistics companies, Xinjiang Fuying Logistics Co., Ltd., it used to take more than a week to deliver goods by land from Urumqi to Bishkek, but after the resumption of this air route, cargo can be delivered to Bishkek on the day of shipment.

“In the future, our company plans to use this air cargo route to promote the development of commercial activities with Central Asian countries,” said Zhao Wei. -0-
