A CHINESE carrier is in talks with Scotland's two busiest airports about establishing a route that would see travellers "piggy back" to Beijing via Manchester.
Bosses at Glasgow and Edinburgh airports are competing to lure China's Hainan Airlines north of the Border.
Both are desperate to secure a direct link between Scotland and the world's fastest growing economy, but the option to fly passengers to and from China via a pick-up stop in Manchester is seen as the next best thing.
It is thought that a twice weekly flight could launch as early as next year, but Hainan has yet to commit to either Glasgow or Edinburgh.
