Visitors to Jiuzhaigou now have more choices for their departure cities in China. On April 25 2010, Air China  launched direct flights between Beijing and Jiuzhaigou, and direct flights between Shanghai and Jiuzhaigou on May 10 2010. These flights don't have legs in Chengdu so the flight cost is greatly reduced and the flight time is cut too.

Air China deploys a Boeing 757 on the new direct routes. The Beijing- Jiuzhaigou daily direct flight numbered CA4121/2, departs from Beijing Capital Airport at 11:50 and arrives at Jiuzhaigou Huanglong Airport at 14:20. The return flight departs from Jiuzhaigou Huanglong Airport at 08:40 the next day and arrives at Beijing Capital Airport at 10:50. The flight time is about 2 hours.

From 10 May, Air China's direct routes between Shanghai and Jiuzhaigou have launched too. The daily flight numbered CA4523/4, departs Shanghai Pudong Airport at 11:50 and arrives at Jiuzhaigou Huanglong Airport at 15:10. The return flight departs Jiuzhaigou Huanglong Airport at 08:20 the next day and arrives at Shanghai Pudong Airport at 10:50.
