“The business case for this service was exceptionally strong with China now being Queensland’s second largest trading partner,” said Brisbane Airport Corporation CEO and managing director Julieanne Alroe. “Our team at BAC has worked very closely with the Australia-China business community in Queensland who have been asking for nonstop services for some time.”
Meanwhile from October 31 China Southern will increase its frequency of service to Sydney to double dailies, and increase Melbourne-Guangzhou flights from three times weekly to a daily timetable.
