CHINA Southern Airlines officially opened its new regional headquarters for Australia and NZ in Sydney last

The freshly refurbished six-storey building is China Southern’s first overseas office purchase, with the airline

Located at 120 Clarence Street, the turn-of-the-century brick & stone building features high ceilings and
carefully conserved arched windows, and is classified by the National Trust of NSW
for its heritage significance.
Covering 1,150sqm, the office is the new home to CZ’s first regional call centre,
a stylish customer reception area & spacious,
