Seasonal Flights from Hong Kong to Palau: A Unique Travel Opportunity

September 28 Hong Kong Airlines launched a 3-times-a-week service (rumored to be a seasonal charter flight) between Hong Kong and Koror in Palau. So far this route has only been operated by Cambodia Airways, so this is a nice addition, although I am not sure how long the router will last for or how easy it is to book – I have tried and failed 😀

Today’s new operator into Hong Kong was West Airs flight 8643 from Zhengzhou. The route was operated by an Airbus A321, and is also scheduled for a flight next Thursday.

Philippine Airlines to start Clark – Hong Kong flights.

I did not see this coming (at least not as the first airline to (re)-start this route, but Philippine Airlines will start operating Clark – Hong Kong three times weekly from December 9th. This is the first time (to my knowledge) that they will be operating this route. Pre-covid it was operated twice daily by Cebu Pacific and once daily by Dragonair, so I am sure the demand it there.

British Airways to resume passenger flights between London Heathrow and Hong Kong December 5, 2022.

British Airways has announced that they will resume daily flights between London Heathrow and Hong Kong effective December 5, 2022. They will for now operate a daily flight with a Boeing 787 Dreamliner.

British Airways used to operate two daily flights before the pandemic, one Boeing 777 and one Airbus A380, so we are quite far from the capacity they used back then, but this is still a sign of traffic starting to come back to Hong Kong now that arrival quarantine has been canceled.

ANA to resume flights between Tokyo Haneda and Hong Kong

ANA has announced that effective 31st of October 2022 they will resume flights between Tokyo Haneda airport and Hong Kong with 4 weekly flights. They will be the first airline to resume flights between Haneda and Hong Kong, although there are several daily flights between Tokyo’s other main airport, Narita, and Hong Kong.

With the end of hotel quarantine announced today for arrivals in Hong Kong I am sure we will see many more announcements of routes resuming over the next few weeks.
