China's flood of cheap airfares deals blow to global carriers

Tuesday, December 13, 2016 - 07:18



[SYDNEY] Killing four empty hours at Guangzhou airport waiting for a China Southern connection to Sydney may not be everyone's idea of fun. For Gina Capella, it was a no-brainer.

The 43-year-old Boston resident and her friend saved hundreds of dollars last year choosing China Southern Airlines Co over a direct flight from Seoul with Korean Air Lines Co or Asiana Airlines Inc.

"We didn't mind the layover because it was so much cheaper," she said. "Like, almost half the price."

Chinese airlines are flooding the world with some of the lowest long-haul fares ever seen - and delivering a hammer blow to foreign carriers trying to keep up. From Delta Air Lines Inc and American Airlines Group Inc in the US, to Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd and Korean Air, many operators are feeling the squeeze from the extended reach of mainland Chinese carriers.

The airline with the kangaroo on its tail is losing a bounce.

Air travelers will be able to fly from Australia to Europe without stopping after Qantas announced the first direct passenger route between the two continents.

Boeing (BA)'s 787-9 Dreamliner will make the epic 17-hour journey between London and Perth, a city on Australia's remote west coast, Qantas (QABSY) said.

The airline plans to launch the service in March 2018, joining the ranks of the world's longest passenger flights.
