Hong Kong Express Airways has resumed its operations on the Hiroshima-Hong Kong route from November 1st, after a suspension of approximately 4 years and 8 months due to the impact of COVID-19.
Initially, the airline will operate three round trips per week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and from January 18, 2025, it will add Saturdays for a total of four weekly round trips.
Prior to the launch, Hiroshima Tourism Association’s mascot character “Hirokuma” distributed Hong Kong’s famous lemon candy in Hong Kong to promote the inauguration.
Events were held at both airports to celebrate the inauguration: in Hong Kong, passengers were gifted commemorative souvenirs, while in Hiroshima, a ceremony was held to celebrate the launch.
In addition to this, Hong Kong Express Airways will also expand its presence in Japan by commencing service to Shizuoka on December 17, and to Sendai on January 17, 2025.
