From Prague, you can currently book superb Business Class fares to China with Hainan Airlines – starting at just ~£895.
Hainan Airlines is listed by Skytrax as a 5 star airline, so it should hopefully be pretty good. Travel dates are available until the end of December 2017.

I would recommend using Google Flights, Kayak and Skyscanner to search for dates.
What Miles can I earn?
Hainan Airlines is not a member of one of the three main aviation alliances. Nevertheless, the airline has some interesting collection partners, such as Etihad Guest where you would earn 125% of the flown distance as redeemable Miles.
Hainan Airlines Business Class
On the route from Prague to Beijing, Hainan Airlines uses its Airbus A330, which has its best Business Class product installed. It is a 1-2-1 configuration, where, depending on the row, seats are closer to the aisle or window. You can read more about Hainan Business Class on its website here.
Bottom line
Business Class to China for under £900 is a very good deal. I’d like to try Hainan Airlines and getting to Prague is extremely cheap and easy from most parts of the country, so I’m half-tempted tempted to give this one a spin.
Anyone else fancy Hainan Airlines, or already flown with them?

Shameful. I make no excuses and can only apologise for such a shocking omission. 🙂
