$999: Return flights to New York
Fly China Southern when you book via STA Travel.
Flights to New York this cheap don't come round often and when we see them with a 4-star airline in summer we have to share them. Flights from Sydney, Perth, Melbourne, Adelaide or Brisbane to New York City all start from a flat price of $999 return.

- Flights include a stopover in China, which you can extend into a longer trip.
