Discover Travel staff were excited to be hosted by Christchurch Airport and China Southern Airlines recently, to inspect China Southern Airlines’ newer, larger Dreamliner (B787-900). This new aircraft started flying daily from Christchurch to Guangzhou (and beyond) on 29 October. The evening was an opportunity to celebrate China Southern Airlines’ success in their few short years of flying to New Zealand, connecting the South Island with mainland China and the rest of the world.
During the evening we enjoyed the opportunity to board the aircraft; sample the spacious economy class and the indulgence of business class – come in and talk to us to find out more!

The spacious new economy class seating with good legroom, and large touch screen entertainment units

Selecting the business class window seat provides comfort and privacy
