Edinburgh, XiamenAir

Post by toom317 »

News earlier this year of direct flights from China to Edinburgh by XiamenAir. Are these still direct or are they all now via Amsterdam, with the last leg done by KLM's aircraft?

I know Hainan have a flight to/ from Beijing via Dublin which comes to Edinburgh using Boeing 787 Dreamliners - was originally Airbus A.330s. I forget how often it comes in.

I Probably got the airlines name wrong. I was under the impression the flights from-to Bejing were in on Tue/Thur/Sat/Sun, Tue/ Sat BEJ-EDI-DUB-BEJ and Thu/Sun BEJ-DUB-EDI-BEJ. I want to plan a trip to get these coming into Edinburgh on the Thu/Sun. I thought they arrived at around 9am, but I'm having trouble finding any info on them. I was hoping anyone who goes to Edinburgh regularly to spot, would have any details of their arrival times.

Well worth it to see one of the most colourful schemes seen at the airport.
