The flights will provide approximately 6,000 seats
and will run for five weeks. They are timed to cover the Chinese Lunar New Year period
which next year takes place at the end of January.
“We
are delighted to be the first Hong Kong carrier to bring back this
highly anticipated Australian route for our passengers,” said Hong
Kong Airlines Chairman, Jeff Sun. “The route
launch will mark our first step back into the long-haul market as
we are gradually introducing more aircraft to support the
expansion of our route network. This includes actively exploring a
return to the North American market, with routes to Vancouver,
Toronto, Los Angeles and Seattle under consideration, to provide
passengers with more international and diverse travel options.”
