Today, China Southern has confirmed the Boeing 787 Dreamliner will start flying to Perth from April 1.
The airline is also set to boost the number of flights to Melbourne and Brisbane, as they focus on increasing the Australian market share.
Melbourne will commence a double-daily service to China Southern’s Guangzhou hub from July 1, increasing the current 10 flights a week, while Brisbane will have a daily service (currently five flights each week) from June 23.
The advanced Dreamliner jet will be replacing the current Airbus A330 on the three weekly flights.
The Boeing 787 offers passengers a more comfortable ride, with a quieter cabin, ride-smoothing technology, clearer filtered air, higher cabin humidity and lower effective cabin pressure, which also contributes to reducing jetlag when you step off the plane.
