CX Deals flying to Europe in Business?
Hey guys,
I was wondering whether CX is offering package deals for flying HKG-FRA in business. The last two years they had those "Premium Bundle Fares" offering 1 short haul + 1 longhaul for ~ 38,000 HKD. This year the round trip to FRA alone is ~ 45,000 HKD (vs. 31,000 HKD to YVR as promotion, roughly same flight time).
Lufthansa on the same route is only ~ 28,000 HKD
The only deals I could find to Europe were Eco and Premium.
Any ideas if it would be possible to get HKG-FRA for around 30ish K HKD?
I'm looking to fly in July.
I'm not really fond of flying LH, because of their smaller seats and fewer lavatories.
Thanks a lot.

You should know by now that if you want cheap CX J/F fares, you depart from anywhere except ex-HKG.
Try ex-TPE, ICN, NRT, BKK.
Or else fly on other carriers eg QR, MH, UL if you want to stay with OW. There are all below HKD$26000 before tax. Okay QR at $27000.
There are many people who'll fly premium and will pay for it ex-HKG that CX does not need to discount.

Thanks Betsy, I don't wanna necessary stay with OW. Just want a nice J seat with good food. Preferably Asian. SIA is right at 31,000 HKD.
BTW: NRT - HKG - FRA is just 16,000 HKD in J or 27,000 from TPE
I blame those rich Mainlanders
