Hong Kong Airlines operated a "Flying Hong Kong" flight at 4:30 pm today (24th). During the 1.5-hour flight time, 120 passengers were flying over the South China Sea within 200 nautical miles from Hong Kong to watch the sunset. When the company decided to launch the relevant experience earlier, about 100 tickets sold on the official website were all sold out within one hour, and the response was overwhelming.
A company spokesperson said that Hong Kong Airlines intends to relaunch the project in the middle of next month, so that more citizens can regain the experience of flying.
In addition, Hong Kong and Singapore are about to implement a tourism bubble. Hong Kong Airlines intends to launch related flights to get a share of the pie after the return.

Under the epidemic situation, two Hong Kong airlines launched the "Hong Kong to Hong Kong" route. In the face of operational difficulties, they hope to find an alternative way of survival. Hong Kong Airlines took the lead in launching the first Hong Kong Flycation flight today, allowing local passengers to have another taste of flying. .
Before boarding, every group of 10 passengers arrive at the designated boarding location. During this period, they cannot go shopping in duty-free shops and other places, and they must go to designated restrooms. Try to isolate them from citizens and tourists leaving and returning to Hong Kong to reduce the chance of cross-infection. , There is no need for home isolation and quarantine testing after the experience.

Hong Kong Airlines Corporate Affairs and Development Director Chuang Weiqi said that he understands that operations are very difficult under the epidemic, and hopes to take this opportunity to regain the feeling of traveling abroad for Hong Kong people who have always liked to travel, and to cheer up the staff at the same time.
Dragonair ended its operations this week. Zhuang admitted that it is difficult to absorb new blood at the moment. He hopes that after the return of the flight next year, new positions will be created to support the industry. In addition, it is difficult to launch flights to different places under the epidemic. With multiple routes, it is hoped that the Hong Kong government can build more tourism bubbles in the future.

Under the epidemic situation, many cabin attendants were forced to take unpaid leave, and the workload was greatly reduced, affecting income.
Sindy, the cabin attendant of Hong Kong Airlines, said frankly that it is still possible to fly twice a month. The flight route is roughly to and from the mainland such as Shanghai, Beijing, Southeast Asia and Taipei. He understands that some of the industry is difficult to resume work, and his situation is very good: " Although I don’t know what other colleagues are doing, it’s because I can fly twice.” I also said that I understand that there are certain difficulties in the operation of the company, and it will be understandable to introduce different pay reduction or unpaid leave measures.
