Flights to China very soon.

That's because they don't exist, unless you ignore the two stop rule and travel for two days.


Cheapest return flights are from Stockholm on Monday for £516. Getting to STO is another matter .

Cheapest viable return flights are from BRU on Monday £608, but with a long stopover(8 hours) in Moscow.

Phew. Just received e ticket and confirmation. The company was Kiwi.com. It's taken all day and 2 phone calls but tickets are here. Was v worried they were going to hike up prices, but they didn't. people on phones were v helpful. Thanks to all of you who replied. It's for my son. he's got a bit of a trek, 2 stops and a tight change over in Abu Dhabi but at least the whole journey is only just over 24 hrs.

A pity I didn't see the thread earlier. Especially as exactly the same combo above, is available from the 8th too, for £5 less. £705 in total and only around sixteen hours of flight time including the single stopover.

It's odd that the travel agents didn't pick up on this combo, as it is Turkish Airlines metal all the way and ample time for the stopover.

Make sure your son reads up on the kiwi.com guarantee. I believe kiwi are the only agent that cobbles together separate tickets meaning there is no protection from the airline for missed connections so, in the worst case, he will need to contact kiwi to get them to try and sort another flight

The first layover is hour and half. The 2 journeys are both Etihad but it says you need to pick up luggage. Is that possible in the time? Is it possible to ask at check in at manchester to send luggage through seeing as they are both same airline.
