China Southern Plans Guangzhou-Brisbane-Auckland Route
May 20, 2010

China Southern Airlines is planning to launch an international roundtrip air route between Guangzhou, Brisbane, and Auckland from November 3, 2010.
This will be the third China to Australia route for China Southern, and the first route to New Zealand to be launched by a Chinese airline.

Three flights are arranged each week for this route. Flight CZ381 will depart Guangzhou at 23:50 local time on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, will arrive at Brisbane at 10:50, take off after two hours and finally get to Auckland at 19:00 local time. The return flight CZ382 will operate on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. It will leave Auckland at 21:00 local time, get to Brisbane at 22:00 and arrive at Guangzhou at 07:00 local time.

Travelers can take flights from Beijing, Shanghai, Changchun, Changsha, Chengdu, Dalian and many other destinations via China Southern's air route network to Guangzhou and then fly to Brisbane and Auckland.

China Southern also operates other two air routes to Australia, the Guangzhou to Sydney and Guangzhou to Melbourne routes.

This is not, "the first route to NZ to be launched by a Chinese airline," as a few years ago Air China briefly extended some of their weekly flights into Sydney onto Auckland as did China Airlines. It was not obviously successful and I doubt this venture will be either.

... as did China Airlines.

If you want to get technical, CI is not a chinese airline.

Obviously, CZ is giving up the BNE-AKL leg of the services, wondering what's the reason.

Looks like CZ will begin CAN-MEL-AKL-MEL-CAN services next year.
