HUNAN: China, especially Hunan province, has seen significant economic growth, leading to an improved quality of life for its citizens, who wish to travel abroad.
“Hunan, being a mountainous region, offers fewer opportunities for its residents to see the sea.
“Conversely, places like Sabah and Sarawak have residents who have never seen the magnificent mountain landscapes of Zhangjiajie,” said Hunan Zhangjiajie Yuejing International Travel (YJLXS) Proprietor Liu Yi during an interview in conjunction with the launch of the inaugural charter direct flight service between Zhangjiajie and Kota Kinabalu, recently.
The Batik Air flight will operate once a week from March until Dec 26, 2025, departing every Friday at 7.15pm and returning at 12.30am early Saturday. The journey takes approximately four hours and 15 minutes.
