Travel to China in style with Skytrax five-star ranked Hainan Airline's latest Early Bird Sale for October. Nonstop flights departing from the carrier's U.S. gateways to various cities across China are marked as low as $315 roundtrip, or $163 one-way.
With prices this cheap, there's a slight catch – the lowest rates are for travel almost a year from now in 2020. So if you're the pre-planner type and like to book way ahead in advance, you won't find a better deal than these on China's top-ranked airline.
