China Eastern Airlines to Launch New China-South America Route via Auckland Airport

Auckland International Airport Ltd. has announced a significant new air service set to enhance New Zealand's connectivity with South America. China Eastern Airlines plans to launch a route linking China and South America via Auckland Airport, with operations expected to commence in December 2025, pending final regulatory approvals. This development was revealed at a ceremony in Shanghai, attended by New Zealand's Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and Tourism and Hospitality Minister Louise Upston. The new service will establish a direct flight connection between Auckland and Buenos Aires, Argentina, addressing a substantial gap in direct capacity between New Zealand and South America. This connectivity is anticipated to boost tourism, trade, international education, and facilitate connections for the 40,000 South Americans residing in New Zealand.
