Waterfront Air set to finally start the seaplane services from China’s Shenzhen to Macau, Guangzhou and Hong Kong in the fourth quarter of 2010.

Waterfront Air will lease a fleet of 18-seater DHC Twin Otter floatplanes for the flights. The flights would take about 20 minutes. It plans to run 20 flights a day. The firm estimates 150,000 visitors will take the trips every year.

It was reported that back in 2008, the firm which founded by Canadian entrepreneur Michael Agopsowicz, was planing to operate a scheduled seaplane service between a new Kai Tak Waterfront Aerodrome and the Pak On ferry terminal near Macau’s Cotai Strip.
