Chinese carrier China Southern Airlines currently offers discounted business class tickets from London-Heathrow to Auckland, New Zealand. Prices start at €1,924 / £1,772 for trips with a single stop in Guangzhou. While Chinese airlines don’t have the best reputation regarding quality of service, all flight legs feature brand new Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft, carrying China Southern’s latest and up to date premium cabin.

Layovers in Guangzhou are a bit long (3+ hours) but otherwise, this is a great offer.

Both flight legs take between eleven and twelve hours. All flights in question are operated by Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft. Their business class features fully reclinable lie flat seats, arranged in a 1-2-1 pattern. You can read ThePointsGuy’s review of the product here.

With a single layover in Guangzhou, these fares are primariliy available in early November 2019 and early March 2020. Singular dates in September and October 2019 can be found, as well. We recommend to use Google Flights to find travel dates (instructions). More often than not, you will find even cheaper flights when entering the same dates in our flight search.

There is broader availability if you’re willing to add a second layover to your journey – but this may result in a different (often inferior) business class product on long haul segments.
