Air Koryo steps up Beijing, Shanghai flight schedules

Shanghai route hasn't flown since August 2017, NK Pro Aviation Tracker data shows

North Korean state airline Air Koryo resumed its regular Thursday flight schedule between Pyongyang and Beijing on March 1 and will fly a limited flight schedule to Shanghai in April, schedules and informed sources said.

The airline stopped all its regular Thursday service to the Chinese capital in January and flew only intermittently in February, meaning there were just two regular Pyongyang-Beijing flights per week for the first two months of the year.
