MONTRÉAL, QUÉBEC--(Marketwired - Jan. 15, 2016) - Aéroports de Montréal (ADM) today unveiled a China-themed photo exhibition at Montréal-Trudeau airport, at a ceremony attended by representatives of Beijing Capital International Airport (BCIA).
The exhibition, presented in the international departures hall, features 22 photos depicting key tourism attractions in Beijing, as well as views of the Chinese capital's airport. This initiative is part of the "sister airports" agreement signed in September 2015 by ADM and BCIA, which saw a similar photo exhibition showcasing Montréal and Trudeau airport presented at Beijing airport last fall.
"I am sure these magnificent photos will get visitors to our airport interested in China, a country with such a fascinating past and present," said ADM President and Chief Executive Officer James Cherry.
A direct air route between Beijing and Montréal was inaugurated last September 29. There are currently three flights a week, operated by Air China, the national flag carrier, on a code share with Air Canada.
"Air China has told us it is pleased with the performance of the Beijing-Montréal route, including the new leg to Havana. We are hopeful that Air China will be able to further increase service to Montréal-Trudeau in the months to come," Mr. Cherry added.
