Questions and Answers

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has flown on Hong Kong Airlines recently! Does anyone have a trip report?

Thanks,

Taylor

P.S. Lucky, If you stop in Hong Kong can you try flying Hong Kong Airlines and reviewing it?

[USER=1896]@Taylor Chung[/USER] I don’t believe Ben has done a report on that airline. Have you looked at:

[USER=79]@Gaurav[/USER] Thanks! Do you know if Lucky will be flying it soon?

I don’t think they are on his list for this year although you never know 🙂

I flew Hong Kong Airlines back in March from HKG-TPE and the return in business class. They often have have cheap business class sales/fares on this route (~1350HKD). For the 1.5 hour flight, I was pleased. I had two slightly different configurations each way: the older a330 and the newer a330. They were both comfortable for the short trip and the food was not bad.

The lounge in HKG (near CX’s the Cabin) was alright for what it was. The food was ok with a decent selection of hot and cold items. When I was there the the departure gate to TPE was far from the lounge (mid-field concourse) so I had to build in time to get to the gate. At TPE you only get access to EVA’s crappy lounge (not the nice one).

They are not a member of any alliance but you can credit to Eva Air’s program.

Is crediting to EVA Air something recent? Can’t find any mention of it on EVA’s website

And there is no mention of it on Wheretocredit.

I heard you can credit to Hainan Air’s Fortune Wings Club but haven’t heard of credit to EVA. Is this new?

Sorry, I meant Hainan. I was thinking about the Eva air lounge when I wrote that
