BTF lists China Southern business class return fares from five Australian cities (SYD, MEL, BNE, ADL, PER) to Istanbul, Amsterdam, London, Madrid and Paris. Lowest fare shown is $4985 return Sydney to Istanbul, with Melbourne-Istanbul from $5004 and Sydney-London from $5476. Travel windows span Oct 2026 to Jun 2027, including Christmas and New Year dates. Some itineraries connect through Guangzhou (CAN). Note: the $4880 headline figure is taken from a separate Turkish Airlines / Thai Airways deal referenced in the post, not from China Southern itself.

Original title

China Southern Business Class: SYD, MEL, BNE, ADL & PER to Istanbul, London, Paris, Madrid & More Fr $4880 Rtn (Incl Xmas)

Something wrong?

Quick take

Good for
  • Business class travellers heading to Europe who can tolerate a Guangzhou stopover
  • Those with Christmas or New Year travel plans wanting a competitive long-haul business fare
Not for
  • Alliance-status chasers (China Southern is not in SkyTeam, Star Alliance or oneworld)
  • Travellers needing direct flights or tight connections
Why it's worth a look
  • $4985-$5500 for business class return to Europe is well below the $8000-$12000 typical for Qantas, Emirates or Singapore Airlines on similar routes
  • Wide travel window (Oct 2026 – Jun 2027) including peak holiday dates
Watch out
  • Title price of $4880 belongs to a different airline's deal; do not book China Southern expecting that figure
  • Guangzhou transit adds travel time and may have short connection windows
  • BTF lists fares from fare data — actual availability and pricing can change before you reach the airline's booking page

Philippine Airlines Business Class: NY Return from $5,135 (BNE) / $5,219 (SYD) / $5,394 (MEL)

Save$3,865You pay $5,135$9,000
QLD/NSW/VIC only

Philippine Airlines business class to New York (one stop in Manila each way), checked bags included. Lowest return fare is $5,135 from Brisbane, with Sydney from $5,219 and Melbourne from $5,394, for travel between Feb and Jul 2027. Usual market price for the same route sits around $9,000–$12,000, so these fares save roughly $3,900+. Catches: some return dates have a 17 hr 50 min layover in Manila (total door-to-door over 42 hrs); not every date hits the low fare; tickets may be non-refundable, so check change/cancel rules before paying. Perth and Adelaide departures are much dearer.
