Hong Kong Airlines to Increase Flights on the Kagoshima-Hong Kong Route from December 23
Hong Kong Airlines is set to increase its flight frequency on the Kagoshima-Hong Kong route starting December 23.
Currently, the airline operates three round trips per week on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. The plan is to add a Monday flight to make it four round trips a week. The route will be serviced by an Airbus A320 aircraft. The flight time from Kagoshima is 3 hours 45 minutes, and from Hong Kong is 3 hours 15 minutes.
Hong Kong Airlines had suspended the service on this route due to the impact of COVID-19 in February 2020 but resumed operations on March 31 this year.
On November 7, a delegation including Kagoshima Prefecture Governor Koichi Shiota, prefectural assembly members, and representatives of economic organizations visited the Hong Kong Airlines headquarters to request an expansion of the route. Hong Kong Airlines expressed their intention to increase the flights. Additionally, the delegation visited EGL Tours and made a request to President Wenying Yuan for support in bringing tourists from Hong Kong.
