    About Dragon Air

    Anyone knows where to buy the cheapest dragon air tickets? On it's own website or via agent?
    For those who travel to mainland China, can you recommend a website for airtickets or an agent?
    Thanks a lot!

    Dragon is OK. At least it's a HK airline. China eastern is cheaper though.

    DragonAir is owned by Cathay Pacific.
    It is a very good airline, IMO.

    To get good deals, it can be cheaper to book a hotel and flight package (see the website).

    The mainland airlines (China Eastern, Air China, etc) will be cheaper most of the time.

    Besides ctrip, elong.net and travelzen.com offer competitive fares for internal China flights.

    Dragon Air is owned by Cathay and whilst I have not tried to buy a Dragon Air flight (at least for my leisure) I have always found Cathay flights to be cheaper buying on their website than buying their flights via a travel agent. always.

    I really quite like DragonAir, and when given the opportunity have voiced my opposition to Cathay's suggestion that they might re-structure the brand as a low cost carrier (this despite the fact that I often choose to fly with Air China from Shenzhen in order to save costs over a typical DragonAir or Cathay flight).

    Both Dragonair and Cathay share the same website features, with basically just a different colour scheme. You can even do online checkin for Dragonair flights using Cathay website and vice versa.

    I find their website excellent and usually cheaper than booking through any agent or other third party website.
