Thank you for using FlyChina, it is our pleasure to provide deep discount airfares online to save your money and your time.
FlyChina.com, an online low fare leader since 1997, has launched many new features this year to catch short-term airline promotions in time, present lower fares around your travel dates, and email you a Fare Alert for your hometown's best deals.
Money Saving Tips
New features on our website. We have added three buttons on the top navigation bar (Fare Alerts, Specials and My Specials), latest promotion on right panel, daily updated low fare on middle left panel, and event related best deals on lower left panel.
Sign up to be notified via email when others found low fares for your hometown. You can select up to 5 different cities and destinations to monitor the fare trend.
Read daily updated deals to guide your search. When you see a new deal, book right away. Never wait until the sale ending date, since lowest fares are sold out quickly,
Now you can book Premium Economy, Business Class and First Class tickets online. You can find deep discount Business Class fares around $3000 on Northwest, United or American Airlines. Premium Economy Class are offered by China Southern Airlines and Eva Airways.
Plan and buy earlier. March is the perfect time to grab your best deal for summer trip. Usually, the earlier you plan, the better deal you will get. The low fare seats will be sold out quickly.
Travel earlier. Traveling before May 17, you may enjoy better fares. Staying within 30 days or within 60 days may have better fare than a 3-month stay.
Travel on weekdays. Most airlines charges extra for traveling on weekends. So you save up to $100 for traveling on Monday through Thursday. Since some flights do not operate everyday, you might want to check flight schedules before selecting your travel date.
Avoid change. Plan well and try to avoid changing the travel dates. Most low fares are non-refundable, so read change penalty carefully before buying your tickets. When making a change, you will pay not only the change penalty, but also the fare difference which can be very high if low fares are sold out.
Flying to Shanghai is cheaper than flying to Beijing due to promotions for the new routes to Shanghai.
Be flexible. A few days of flexibility on your travel date can bring you huge savings. When booking, check Flexible Date, and tell our agent your flexible dates, and alternative cities in the Special Needs section when submitting your booking request. On fare search result page, you can see the lower fare others found about 15 days around your travel date.
New Non-Stop Flights: Newark – Shanghai, Detroit – Shanghai
Continental Airlines will start to fly Cleveland-Newark-Shanghai on
March 25, 2009. This is the first daily non-stop from New York area
to Shanghai.
Northwest Airlines will begin its non-stop Detroit-Shanghai service
On June 1, 2009. Northwest Airlines is now a part of the newly merged
Delta Air Lines. However, the full integration of the two identities
will take one or two years to complete. Delta Air Lines launched its
non-stop Atlanta-Shanghai flights in March 2008. It is the only
non-stop flight between Southeastern US and China.
Hainan Airlines started its Seattle-Beijing service last summer
before Beijing Olympics. It is the only non-stop
service between Northwestern US and China. Hainan Airlines is the 4th Chinese
airline to fly between China and USA, after Air China, China Eastern and China Southern.
Some other flight changes impacted by the weak market demand:
Northwest Airlines no longer flies to Guangzhou.
United Airlines did not fly San Francisco-Guangzhou as proposed.
American Airlines postponed the launch of its Chicago-Beijing route.
US Airways postponed its Charlotte-Philadelphia-Beijing service.
