Two new international cargo air routes were recently launched, linking Guiyang, the capital of Southwest China's Guizhou province, with Yangon in Myanmar and Dhaka in Bangladesh.

Chinese state media, citing Guizhou Civil Aviation Industry Group Co Ltd, operator of Guiyang Longdongbao International Airport, said Tianjin Air Cargo operates the routes using Boeing 737-800F all-cargo aircraft with a maximum payload capacity of 21 tonnes.

Four to five flights are scheduled per week on the respective routes.

The new destinations add to the Guiyang airport's growing list of international cargo routes, which include destinations such as Kolkata, Delhi, Karachi and Moscow.

The inbound flights primarily transport aquatic products, including crabs and eels, while the outbound flights focus on goods such as garments, textiles, flowers, and electronic and mechanical parts.

To further facilitate trade, customs authorities at Guiyang Longdongbao International Airport offer expedited around-the-clock clearance for both imported and exported goods, the report said.
