Jetstar to launch Hainan

Singapore-based low-cost carrier Jetstar Asia plans to launch four-times weekly service on the Singapore-Haikou route.

The new service will commence on 16 December, says the carrier. Haikou is the capital of China's Hainan province, located near the popular beach resort of Sanya.

The service will be operated by Jetstar Asia's eighth Airbus A320 aircraft, which will arrive in December.
