Each operates distinct business class products with varying stopover options through cities including Los Angeles, Sydney, and Auckland, giving travelers meaningful choices in how they structure their journey across the Pacific.

The lowest fares tend to surface in January, February, March, June, July, and August — months when corporate demand on this corridor softens.
