China Flights Update — 14 June 2026
flights • 14 June 2026
New **international flight routes to China** are expanding, with the clearest update in the results showing **Air France continuing daily Paris–Beijing service and daily Paris–Shanghai service this summer**, with some Shanghai frequencies operating on specific days from **September 11 to October 14, 2026**.[1] Air France says its **summer 2026 schedule is expected to operate as planned**, which is useful for travelers connecting into China via Paris.[1] For additional route developments, an industry post reports that **Air China has launched new Frankfurt–Beijing Daxing and Milan–Beijing Daxing routes**, though this is supported here by a social media source rather than an airline release.[2] Another airline-industry item says **China Southern Airlines launched a Frankfurt–Urumqi service on June 1**, giving travelers another Europe–China option via western China.[9] If you want, I can turn this into a **travel-news style roundup** focused on the latest **new routes, frequencies, and airline-by-airline options** for U.S. travelers heading to China.Sources
