Hong Kong Air Cargo has launched a new chartered freighter service between Hong Kong and Sydney, Australia starting December 8, 2022. The airline plans to operate Airbus A330-200F three times weekly.
William Chan, Director of Government and Public Affairs, Hong Kong Air Cargo said, “We will continue to expand our route network and improve our service to serve our customers. As the global market recovers from the pandemic, it is important for us to focus on what we do well and respond to our customer’s needs whilst ensuring that we strengthen Hong Kong’s position as the international cargo hub.”
In 2021, Hong Kong Air Cargo received approval to operate flights to nine new destinations, Sydney being one of them. The airline believes that the new service will allow customers the opportunity to streamline cargo consignments originating from both the airline’s current route network and its hub Hong Kong to Australia.
