Australia's Qantas has relaunched its Sydney-Beijing direct service.
"Today, the economics (of the route) have never been better," Qantas chief executive Alan Joyce said.
"We're linking this amazing city (Sydney) with its amazing continuance of indigenous history with an amazing city, Beijing, which is a 3,000-year-old city with eight centuries of being the capital of China.
"There's nothing more symbolic than linking these two continuous pieces of history together."
