China Southern
Airlines is to offer a brand new standard of service on its flights
between China and Australia from next month, with the introduction of
its new Airbus A330-200 aircraft and cocoon-style flat bed seats in Premium Business Class.
The airline
will progressively introduce the 264-seat, dual-class A330s on its Melbourne-Sydney-Guangzhou and Sydney-Guangzhou routes, as part of a continuing
programme of improvement throughout its network.
With the Airbus A330, China Southern also will debut in Australia the new-look Premium Business Class, with 24 Minipod flat bed seats from B/E Aerospace, Inc.
