Air New Zealand is increasing capacity on its Auckland to Beijing route by 38.6% with the addition of a third year-round Boeing 777-200 service from early December.
The airline also announced a range of capacity increases for its upcoming northern winter schedule from November 2011 to March 2012.
Capacity on the airline's China routes will rise by 21.6% for the winter schedule.
"We will be increasing our Auckland - Tokyo capacity by 16%, with the up-gauge of the daily service from a Boeing 777-200 to a Boeing 747-400 aircraft, reflecting our confidence in the return of tourists to New Zealand from this important market," deputy chief executive Norm Thompson said.
On North American routes, all Auckland to San Francisco services will be operated by Boeing 747-400 aircraft, increasing capacity by 14.1%, while Auckland to Vancouver capacity will rise by 10.1%.
