On December 22, 2025, Shenzhen Airlines Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Shenzhen Airlines") held a grand launch ceremony at Shenzhen Bay Cultural Plaza for its first direct flight to Australia, themed "Connecting with the World." This marks another significant expansion of Shenzhen Airlines' international route network and establishes a convenient "air bridge" between the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and Australia. Leaders from Shenzhen Municipality and relevant civil aviation authorities, Australian government agencies, Shenzhen Airlines, and representatives from major media outlets and customers witnessed the successful launch of the Shenzhen-Melbourne direct flight.
According to Shenzhen Airlines, Shenzhen is its origin, strategic fulcrum, and key support point. As a local Shenzhen airline brand and operator of the Shenzhen international aviation hub, Shenzhen Airlines bears the important responsibility of connecting Shenzhen with the world and shoulders the important mission of disseminating Shenzhen's urban culture and showcasing its unique characteristics. The Shenzhen-Melbourne route is an important step for Shenzhen Airlines in expanding its international network in the Southern Hemisphere. In the future, Shenzhen Airlines will continue to focus on the construction of Shenzhen's international hub, showcasing Shenzhen's style in the global aviation market with a denser route network, higher quality service, and stronger operational capabilities, and making greater contributions to Shenzhen's development into a global benchmark city and China National Aviation Holding Company's goal of becoming a world-class enterprise.
Directly connecting the Greater Bay Area and the Southern Hemisphere, opening a new intercontinental air corridor
Shenzhen and Melbourne are both vibrant international cities with strong complementarity and great potential for cooperation in industries such as technological innovation, financial services, and green and low-carbon development. The opening of the direct flight will inject stronger momentum into economic and trade exchanges, cultural and tourism exchanges, and talent exchange between the two cities, helping them achieve a higher level of cooperative development.
This route is operated by Airbus A330 wide-body aircraft, with three flights per week. Outbound flight ZH811 departs Shenzhen at 23:55 Beijing time and arrives in Melbourne at 13:00 local time the following day; return flight ZH812 departs at 22:20 local time and arrives in Shenzhen at 05:00 Beijing time the following day (flight information is subject to change). The average one-way flight time is less than 10 hours, significantly reducing the travel time between the two cities.
Innovative Launch, Five Chapters Showcasing a New Travel Experience
The launch event, themed "Neighboring the World," presented Shenzhen Airlines' innovative achievements in route network, product services, and ecosystem development through five carefully designed chapters.
The press conference featured a themed interactive experience area, allowing guests to experience the unique charm of Shenzhen and Melbourne in advance. The opening show, "Smart Connectivity," artistically depicted the dialogue and connection between the two cities. During the product launch, the "Multimodal Transport" and "Colorful Transfers" series of products, specially designed for the new routes, were highlighted, providing passengers with more convenient and comfortable travel options.
Ecosystem Integration, Creating a New Smart Aviation Experience
Shenzhen Airlines is committed to deeply integrating aviation services with local culture, building an open and win-win aviation ecosystem. The launch of the AI-powered agent "Shenzhen Airlines Flying" brings passengers a new smart aviation service experience; the "Membership + Ecosystem" model integrates flying into all aspects of life through rich points benefits.
In terms of brand cooperation, Shenzhen Airlines actively promotes the integrated development of "aviation + culture and tourism," deeply integrating its brand image and service experience into urban life through joint live broadcasts and cross-industry marketing. At the same time, Shenzhen Airlines focuses on the sports and exhibition sectors, providing partners with comprehensive support including brand promotion, travel benefits, and exclusive services.
At the launch event, the inaugural flight theme film "Beyond the Ocean" was released, showcasing the unique cultural charm and natural scenery of Shenzhen and Melbourne through a moving story of two cities, allowing guests to deeply feel that this route not only connects the two places but also brings people closer together.
Serving National Strategies, Contributing to the Construction of an International Hub
The opening of the Shenzhen-Melbourne route is an important measure for Shenzhen Airlines to actively respond to the national "15th Five-Year Plan" goal of building an international hub. With the continuous expansion of its route network, Shenzhen Airlines is working with Shenzhen Airport to build a more comprehensive global connection.
According to data released by Shenzhen Airport, as of November 2025, Shenzhen Airport handled over 5.7 million international and regional passengers, a year-on-year increase of 23%. The route network departing from Shenzhen now connects to 60 destinations across five continents. Shenzhen, with its unique geographical advantages and extensive domestic route network, is becoming a crucial transit hub for mainland passengers traveling to destinations worldwide.
Shenzhen Airlines was born amidst the wave of Shenzhen's reform and opening up. For over three decades, it has remained rooted in Shenzhen, the Greater Bay Area, and the nation, connecting with the world. Adhering to its mission of "adding wings to a better life" and upholding its core values of "safety first, customer foremost, pursuit of excellence, and value creator-centricity," Shenzhen Airlines transports over 40 million passengers annually, accumulating over 9 million hours of safe flight time, and has built a route network covering the entire country and connecting the world. Leveraging Shenzhen Airport's core advantages of having the largest fleet and handling the most international passengers, Shenzhen Airlines provides an efficient and convenient "air bridge" for Shenzhen, injecting continuous energy into the world-class airport cluster of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
This inaugural flight allows Shenzhen Airlines to accompany you from Shenzhen to Melbourne, allowing you to experience the vibrant dialogue between these two charming cities and feel the boundless connection across hemispheres. (Correspondent: Yang Ziwei)
