Ningbo in East China's Zhejiang province will gradually resume flights to Beijing, capital city of China, starting from Aug 25.

Flights CA1840 and CA1542, which departs from Ningbo Lishe International Airport for Beijing Capital International Airport, will resume on Aug 25, as will the return flights.

According to the Air China website, the economy class tickets for the Ningbo-Beijing flights are priced at 1,150 yuan ($176.9) on that day. The fare drops to 582 yuan a day later.

The city cancelled all its flights to Beijing's two airports on Aug 11, after a port worker from the city tested positive for COVID-19.

The bullet train G180 bound for Beijing South Railway Station has already been resumed in Ningbo, while three other high-speed trains traveling from the city to Beijing still remain suspended, with the reopening time still to be determined.
