Although American Airlines pulled service between Chicago and China, the airline still flies nonstop to both Beijing and Shanghai from Dallas and Los Angeles.
With so many airlines competing between the LAX and China market, fares have usually been quite reasonable. Now, American is spicing things up even further with an incredible roundtrip, nonstop economy fare for flights from Los Angeles to Beijing. Even better, it’s a full economy ticket (eligible for upgrades). None of that basic economy nonsense.
The Deal
- Where: Los Angeles (LAX) to Beijing (PEK) nonstop or San Diego (SAN)/Denver (DEN)/Orlando (MCO) to Beijing (PEK)
- When: Select dates from September 2019 to November 2019
