Compare with China Eastern →The six prepared dates use similar schedules. Departure and arrival times are generally traveller-friendly, although the return connection in Shanghai is relatively tight.
Total journey time is approximately 17h55. The 10:30 departure from Gatwick and lunchtime arrival in Macau are practical, while the 3h35 connection provides a reasonable transfer buffer.
Total journey time is approximately 16h50. The evening departure preserves most of the final day and the early London arrival is useful, but the 1h35 Shanghai transfer leaves limited recovery time if the first flight is delayed.
Both flights use Shanghai Pudong Terminal 1 in the displayed example, which helps. Nevertheless, a 1h35 international transfer offers little delay protection. Confirm that checked baggage is transferred automatically and that the complete itinerary is issued on one ticket.
Super.com shows an attractive £346.99 fare, but support, changes and refunds follow the agency’s conditions. Compare the final total with China Eastern and other highly rated Skyscanner providers before paying.
Macau is well placed for combining casinos, Portuguese heritage and local food with Hong Kong, Zhuhai or a longer southern China itinerary. Check the entry requirements for every destination included in your plans.
All six buttons open the prepared Skyscanner searches. Each option was showing approximately £347 when checked. Effective nights are calculated from the local arrival date in Macau to the local departure date.
Prices, schedules and availability can change. Confirm the Super.com booking provider, normal upfront payment total, one 23 kg checked bag, cabin baggage, meals, Shanghai transit arrangements, through-ticket protection, baggage transfer, change conditions and final payment currency before booking. Travellers must also check the current entry and transit requirements applicable to their own passport and complete itinerary.
A genuinely strong full-service fare with checked baggage, practical flight times and only one stop, held back mainly by the tight 1h35 return connection and third-party booking conditions.
At approximately £347 return with a 23 kg checked bag, cabin bag and personal item, this is excellent value from London to Macau.
The schedules are surprisingly useful for a one-stop East Asia itinerary: Gatwick departure is at 10:30, Macau arrival is around lunchtime, the return leaves at 21:40 and London arrival is at 06:30.
The honest final score is 8.4/10. The fare and inclusions are excellent, but the 1h35 return connection and online-agency booking prevent it from scoring closer to nine.
Approximately £347 return to Macau is an outstanding long-haul price from London, particularly with checked baggage included.
The fare includes a 23 kg checked bag, a standard cabin bag and a small personal item, creating a practical holiday package.
China Eastern provides a full-service long-haul product, while the short Shanghai–Macau sector is operated by Shanghai Airlines.
The 10:30 Gatwick departure, 3h35 Shanghai connection and 12:25 Macau arrival create a sensible outbound journey.
The 21:40 departure preserves most of the final day and the 06:30 arrival is useful, but the Shanghai transfer is tight.
Only one stop each way is reasonable for Macau, and the itinerary remains within Shanghai Pudong Terminal 1 in the displayed example.
The outbound buffer is comfortable, but the 1h35 return transfer offers limited protection if the Macau flight is delayed.
Journey times of approximately 17h55 outbound and 16h50 return are long but acceptable for a one-stop route to Macau.
Six combinations are available across November and December, with effective stays from six to thirteen nights.
The lowest price is through Super.com. Review agency support, financing language and the complete upfront total before paying.
A return fare from London to Macau from approximately £347 with a 23 kg checked bag is genuinely excellent. The useful departure and arrival times, full-service airline and six date choices make it more than just a headline price. The principal weakness is the 1h35 return transfer in Shanghai, while the lowest price is sold through an online agency with optional credit promotions. For travellers who verify the through-ticket and fare conditions carefully, the honest final rating is 8.4/10.
Macau can offer surprisingly strong hotel value, with selected well-rated 4- and 5-star hotels starting from approximately €70 per room per night. This makes the destination especially attractive for travellers who want a comfortable stay without paying Hong Kong-level prices every night.
Macau is also very easy to combine with nearby Hong Kong. Ferries and bridge buses connect the two destinations, allowing this flight deal to become a memorable two-in-one city trip rather than a Macau-only holiday.
Spend the first part of the trip in Macau, continue to Hong Kong by ferry or bridge bus, and consider returning to Macau for the final night before the flight. This reduces the risk of a same-day cross-border delay and makes the departure day more relaxed.
Travellers should remember that Macau and Hong Kong have separate immigration controls. Keep passports and entry documents easily accessible and allow extra time when crossing between them.
Search each destination with its own dates. Moving only once between the cities is usually more practical than repeatedly crossing the border and changing hotels.
Macau hotels often provide larger rooms, while centrally located Hong Kong rooms can be compact. Check the exact room category, nearest station, ferry access, breakfast and cancellation terms before booking.
Travelling back from Hong Kong on departure day is possible, but a ferry delay, weather disruption or immigration queue could create unnecessary stress. A final night in Macau offers a safer and more comfortable finish.
Macau and Hong Kong operate separate immigration controls. Travellers must verify the current entry conditions for their own passport before arranging the combined trip.
Hotel prices and availability can change according to travel dates, occupancy, room category, location, meal plan and cancellation conditions. The €70 starting price is an approximate example for selected well-rated 4- and 5-star hotels in Macau. Confirm the final price, taxes, room size, bed type, breakfast, payment conditions, cancellation deadline and separate Macau and Hong Kong entry requirements before booking.
