Aircalin has reportedly already sold its seats for the first flight between Hangzhou and Noumea in an arrangement with a Chinese tour operator.
The airline wants to see if it can establish a regular service attracting Chinese visitors to the top end of the market.
The move comes as China has given New Caledonia approved destination status.
