You will start your journey with China Southern Airbus A350 from Amsterdam to Guangzhou. These planes have a 2-4-2 seating pattern in premium economy, compared to the 3-3-3 in economy class.

The Chinese domestic segment is an economy class flight.

This deal doesn’t have an expiration date, but it does require a minimum stay of six days or an overnight stay on a Saturday, with a maximum stay of twelve months. Departures are available from September 2025 to March 2026.

You can find suitable dates using our calendar above or with the help of Google Flights. We recommend booking directly on China Southern’s website, but you can find cheaper prices with Skyscanner. However, booking on OTAs has its downsides.

Why is booking with an airline better than with an online travel agency?

More often than not, online travel agencies offer lower fares than airlines do. We still recommend booking with the airlines directly. There are two main reasons for that:

Better Customer Service
In case any problems like delays, cancellations or missed connections arise, you can communicate directly with the airline. The airline has to take care of you because you have a contract with them.

If a travel agency issues your ticket, you may have to reach out to them first. You also depend on your OTA to forward information like flight changes instead of receiving them directly from the airline. In many cases, you may get a prime exhibition of responsibility shifting rather than problem-solving.

This especially applies to premium tickets. You don’t want to spend more than €1,000 to wind up with some budget OTA’s telephone hotline in case anything goes wrong.

Baggage and Other Fees
Economy fares not including hold luggage are industry standard by now. In most cases, travel agencies charge much higher baggage fees than the airlines themselves. If bags are not included in your fare, airlines are often the cheaper alternative.

This also applies to other things like food services, insurances or priority treatment. In almost all cases, you pay less for additional amenities when booking on the airlines’ website.

Miles & Points

This ticket is issued in booking class S. Here are the miles and points you can earn from this deal to Shanghai:

  • 12,854 Miles on MEA Cedar Miles

Information & Tips for China

China offers a wide range of sights, from historical landmarks like the Great Wall, the Terracotta Army, and the Forbidden City to modern cities like Shanghai and scenic areas such as Zhangjiajie and Guilin. The currency is the Chinese yuan (CNY), and mobile payments via apps like Alipay and WeChat Pay are widely used, though cash is still accepted. Prices vary—major cities can be moderate to expensive, while rural areas are generally more affordable. Weather conditions differ greatly by region, with cold winters in the north, hot, humid summers in the south, and a generally best travel period in spring or autumn.

China has a highly developed transport system, especially in urban and coastal areas. Most major cities have extensive metro networks that are cheap, efficient, and easy to navigate with English signage. For travel between cities, the high-speed rail network is one of the most advanced in the world, connecting even distant regions quickly and reliably. In rural or less-developed areas, transport options can be more limited and slower, but basic bus or train connections are usually available.

    There is even cheaper fare from Budapest with their Boeing 787-9 in premium economy. I purchased for November for EUR 551.98. Budapest to Xi’an and coming back from Peking to Budapest. Both flights with short stopover in CAN. Just be careful which domestic flights you choose, so you will have good premium seats also on domestic. This year I already tried their premium economy on Boeing 787-9 and I must say it is great. Seats are very comfortable and you can really have a great rest/sleep. From Xi’an I found a great deal in business class to Japan with Cathay Pacific for around 650eur. Arriving to Fukuoka and leaving from Osaka to Peking. Both flights via Hong Kong, so you have all 4 flights on 330 with lie flat seats and with lounges 🙂
