SINGAPORE: A Singaporean couple marked Jetstar's inaugural flight from Singapore to Shantou, China, on Tuesday by tying their nuptial knots on board the aircraft.

Alvin Lim and Rachel Chan exchanged their marriage vows in the presence of a Justice of Peace on board the budget carrier.

Rachel said: "We decided that if we could have a wedding solemnisation venue that was completely different, how nice that would be. And if we could actually solemnise our marriage in the air, that would really bring out the spirit of adventure."

Jetstar Asia is the first foreign carrier to operate international flights into Shantou Waisha Airport in China's Guangdong province.

Shantou is Jetstar Asia's 20th destination and second to mainland China after it began the four times weekly direct Singapore-Haikou flights in Hainan province from December 16 last year.

Jetstar will fly the new route three times weekly between Shantou Waisha Airport and Singapore's Changi Airport. - CNA/de
