China Airlines has started flying its latest long-haul aircraft, the Airbus A350, to Amsterdam.

The Taiwan-based carrier commenced a new non-stop service to the Netherlands in December 2016, in partnership with KLM.

And effective January 8, 2017, the four weekly Taipei-Amsterdam flights will be operated using the 306-seat, four-class A350. China Airlines took delivery of its first ever A350 in September last year.

Meanwhile, the airline has revealed plans to reduce its Indian operations. For the 2017 summer season, running from March 26 to October 28, the airline will cut its Taipei-Delhi service from three to two flights per week.
