AIRChina is looking to boost revenues by offering a range of deals to UK passengers flying to Australia via Beijing.
Customers booking tickets to fly to Australia on the carrier’s thrice-weekly Heathrow flight next month qualify for a special fare of £550 return to Sydney and Melbourne.
For flights up to the end of the year, Air China is also offering a half-price second ticket and free accommodation in Beijing for Australia-bound passengers.
The complimentary stay in the Chinese capital is for one night in a three-star hotel. The reduced price ticket for a second passenger is available to all business-class customers.
