      because there is no incentive for them to do so. There is no competition on direction flights.

    • tomokaicho on 05/01/2017 - 15:53

      I purchased Sydney to Guangzhou return in last Virgin Sale. $280 return.

      • Tyler Kwok on 05/01/2017 - 18:37

        Where and how many transfer?

          Singapore transfer, a couple of hours. Sydney, SG, Guangzhou, and back. August in my case, but were plenty of tickets in that deal.

        • Tyler Kwok on 09/01/2017 - 22:24

          @tomokaicho:

          geez that was dirt cheap.

    As this flight transit at Guangzhou, may I get off/on at Guangzhou? I think for the outbound leg, it will be ok, but I don't know whether I can do that with the return leg.

    • blue_bug on 05/01/2017 - 08:16

      on the website you can change the booking to be a multi-stop so you can pick when and for how long to stay.

      it does bump the price to $431, but still a very good price.

    Does anybody know the overall process/price for obtaining a VISA if you're an Australian citizen? Thanks in advance!

      When I went there a few years ago, I think it was around $130ish AUD for a double entry visa.

      • rawm on 05/01/2017 - 08:33

        Looks like I found my answer: https://www.travelchinaguide.com/embassy/australia/visa-appl…
        Single-Entry with 3-month Validity AUD 60
        Double-Entry with 6-month Validity AUD 90

        • jeppetto367 on 05/01/2017 - 08:51

          Note that theres also a $30 processing fee regardless of which type of visa you get.

        • broot on 05/01/2017 - 08:52

          u need to add the handling service fee, totalling $109.5 for single entry

        • ash2000 on 05/01/2017 - 08:57
          +3

          Those prices are correct, but they exclude the $49.50 application fee. So the prices are $109.50 and $139.50 respectively.

          If you go in to the visa centre, you can have just one person go (provided all forms are filled out completely and correctly). But allow 4-5 hours to do with the queue time and the time it takes staff to double check your application is completed (before they accept it).

          They need to hang on to your passport and then next week all going well, you get your approval back the following week along with your passports.

          That's for Melbourne

          @foundit:

          Sydney is much more efficient in my experience (even though some have warned of long waiting times).

          Ive applied twice in the last 2 years and never waited more then 15 minutes to submit (5mins for the staff to check) and even less for collection. The standard processing time is 4 business days in Sydney.

          Is the 4-5hours wait when you have a prebooked time for submission via the webpage?

        • SomeGuyOnOzB on 17/01/2017 - 09:51

          @ash2000:
          Ah no, I did not have a pre-booked time … is that free in Sydney?

        $130 for a double entry ….. giggle…..

      Before getting a Visa for China, check and see if you're eligible for the APEC card: https://www.border.gov.au/Busi/Trav/APEC

      $200, lasts 5 years, handy!

    You'd think that getting to China would be cheaper from Sydney than from Melbourne.

      Based on your logic the price for trans-Tasman flight should be less than 150 return? :)

    $110 to enter the country?! that's a bit of a rort.

      Yep, Imagine if Australia charged the Chinese that much. There'd be no deficit.

      • ChickenTalon on 05/01/2017 - 10:02

        They already imagined it, and a little bit more. We charge all Chinese tourists $135. (unless they're transiting)

        You wish.. Australia has a $135 visa application fee for Chinese

    • ash2000 on 05/01/2017 - 12:53

      $110 to enter the country?! that's a bit of a rort.

      Unfortunately it's the same in other countries requiring a visa ….. Vietnam is AUD $95 and India is US$60 (just for VoA electronic verification ).

    Even you can take off in Australia, you may not land in Bejing. The smog is too thick to blow you away.

    Be sure to get your application for your property purchase in early with the Chinese Foreign Investment Review Board to avoid disappointment.

    It's a good price but consider the pollution… Sure it's probably worse in winter than spring but it's really no joke. I was in Xi'an (Beijing is generally worse than Xi'an) just last week and the air quality index was mid 200s (very unhealthy) and my lungs were feeling it, my chest felt a bit heavy. I'm not asthmatic.

    • ash2000 on 05/01/2017 - 12:58
      +1

      That's quite high….. Considering Sydney sits about 20 on the same index. But it's the luck of the draw and the season you go. I've been to Beijing when the index was around 40 (Perfect blue clear skies), and again when it was well over 200 (dark and miserable ).

    • maxdba on 05/01/2017 - 14:16

      200 is very normal. 500 is not rare now.

    • MrCAMEL on 05/01/2017 - 16:05

      Nice price. After 2 winters in Ulaanbaatar, all I was doing was dreaming of breathing Beijing air! Haha!

      Not quite free, you have to contribute to it by flying in.

    as a Chinese, if you want to taste the purest smog, then go to north China in the winter
