The round-trip flight will be operated by Russia’s Ural Airlines using an Airbus A320.

The flight will ply the route once a week, and will stop in the Russian city of Yekaterinburg, according to Harbin Taiping International Airport.

The flight will leave Harbin at 1:05 am every Thursday, and arrive in Prague at 9:40 am, with a stop in Yekaterinburg at 4:35 am.

The flight will take around10 hours, slashing the current travel time between Harbin and Prague, which requires a transfer in Beijing or Shanghai and takes roughly 25 hours.
