Air China has brought back its annual German super-sale weekend. I have no idea why Air China offers such low prices for one weekend a year but it does offer exceptional opportunities.
Full details are on the Air China German site here. Prices are astounding, although I have no experience of Air China’s business class seat or service and I recommend doing some digging before booking. For the money, I doubt you can go far wrong.
As a member of Star Alliance, you can credit the flights – as long as the relevant booking class is valid – to Miles & More, United MileagePlus, SAS EuroBonus, Singapore Airlines Krisflyer or one of the various other options which are easier to operate than Air China’s PhoenixMiles scheme.

If you don’t have a credit card with 0% foreign exchange fees, your best option for paying is American Express Preferred Rewards Gold which offers triple points – 3 per £1 – when you book flight tickets in a foreign currency. This is because the transaction triggers the ‘double points for airline spend’ and the ‘double points for foreign spend’ bonuses. Our review of Amex Gold is here.
