Hong Kong Airlines Launches Third Thailand Destination with Daily Service to Chiang Mai
The
launch coincides perfectly with Thailand's Loy Krathong (Festival of
Light) in November, allowing travellers to experience the vibrant parades and
celebrations.
Chiang
Mai becomes Hong Kong Airlines' third destination in Thailand,
joining Bangkok and Phuket, with daily flights now available. To
commemorate the inaugural flight, a celebration was held at the Hong
Kong International Airport, and was officiated by Mr Jeff Sun,
President of Hong Kong Airlines; Mr Chaturont CHAIYAKAM, Consul-General
of Thailand in Hong Kong; Mrs Phornmon Chansri, Director of
Tourism Authority of Thailand; and Mr Ricky Chong, Assistant General
Manager, Hub Development of the Airport Authority Hong Kong.
Hong
Kong Airlines President Mr Jeff Sun said: "Thailand is one
of our most popular destinations, and in addition to Chiang Mai, we
operate five daily flights to Bangkok and a daily flight to Phuket,
all of which are performing very well. Coupled with the recent launch of our
routes to Laos and Da Nang, this expansion strengthens our
network across Southeast Asia and reinforces Hong Kong Airlines'
commitment to enhancing connectivity along the Belt and Road, facilitating
trade, and promoting cultural and economic exchange."
