New low-cost china airlines

I've read several articles this week on Spring Airlines, a new private low-cost Chinese airlines. Just started this week. The articles claim tickets can only be purchased through their website. But I can't find their website. Does anyone know of it? And does it offer english?

There was an artitcle about this just the other day... don't recall a website but did remember that a ticket from Shanghai to Yantai was RMB199. Now that's a deal!

In the north of China, on the sea. Has lots of seafood and some lovely views. I have only gone for work... we have several factories there.

I believe they only fly this route so far SHA/YANTAI/SHA

appearantly only the first 13 tickets were 199 RMB , the others paid up to 500 kwai ( which is still better than the original deal of course )

Spring Airlines is a new low-cost carrier that is based here in Shanghai. It is part of the Spring International group, so it has the potential to be a huge airline.

They fly Shanghai-Guilin-Shanghai daily
Shanghai-Mianyang-Shanghai every Tue/Thu/Sat
Shanghai-Yantai-Shanghai every Mon/Wed/FRi/Sun
Shanghai-Nanchang-Shanghai every Wed/Fri/Sun

They use an Airbus A320 (best aircraft in the world) and the web site is www.china-sss.com

Give them a ago!!!
