On October 27, the low-altitude connecting shuttle route from Wujiang, Suzhou to Shanghai Pudong International Airport completed its successful maiden flight, adding an "air expressway" for intercity travel in the Yangtze Delta. For this first flight, an Airbus 135 helicopter took off from the Wujiang Dongrong Low-Altitude Flight Support Base in Suzhou and landed precisely at the Pudong International Airport connection point 30 minutes later. Passengers then took a 10-minute ground transfer to reach the terminal building, making the total journey only 40 minutes. This is a time saving of over 70% compared to the approximately 150-minute drive during peak traffic hours. Once the route is in regular operation, it will be managed by Dongrong Low-Altitude and flown by Eastern General Aviation, featuring a dual-captain configuration with experienced pilots and a top-tier maintenance team to ensure flight safety. Additionally, the Shanghai Airport Suzhou Service Center began operations on October 25, creating a "two-way service loop" with the Suzhou City Air Terminal. Come experience this efficient and flexible new option for intercity travel and start your convenient journey
