<h1>Indian airline resumes daily nonstop flights between major eastern city and Guangzhou, first direct India-China service in five years</h1> An Indian carrier has resumed daily non-stop flights between a major eastern Indian city and Guangzhou, marking the first direct India-China air service in over five years; the inaugural flight used an Airbus A320 and the airline plans to add daily services from the national capital to Guangzhou beginning November 10. Direct services were suspended in early 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and later geopolitical tensions; recent diplomatic initiatives enabled the restart. The carrier says the route will facilitate travel, trade, investment and support MSMEs, tourism, education and healthcare links.
