Airline companies in the Middle East have been opening new routes to China to cater to the soaring demand.

Dubai,  the most populous city in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), alone has more than 100 flights every week to major Chinese cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Xi'an, Chengdu and Wuhan.

To better meet the needs of passengers, several airlines in Dubai are planning to launch new routes to China. 

"It's very fast processed. It's very easy.  China is a very good country, very beautiful country. I've been to Shanghai. It's a beautiful city. Wuhan, I hear it's a very, very beautiful city.  I'm planning to go and visit,” said Muhammad, a Syrian tourist who has planned to take a plane from the Dubai International Airport to China.

Chinese airline companies are also planning to add more flights between China and Middle Eastern countries to facilitate people's traveling.  

China Southern Airlines, a leading Chinese airline, currently operates more than 20 weekly flights from UAE's Dubai, Saudi Arabia's Riyadh, Qatar's Doha to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other Chinese cities, and it will launch two new weekly flights from Riyadh to Shenzhen in early June.
