S V Choong 4 Report post Posted April 15, 2017 Chinese mainland airlines ex hkg promotional fare to Europe and North America could be very cheap. Not a surprise CX profit is depressed. Most mainland Chinese prefer to fly direct these days as mainland airlines are reaching out for more destinations. Either that they will fly Korean Air or Asiana, or even ANA and JAL. Many of them are becoming more and more uncomfortable of the unnecessary cocky attitudes of Hong Kongers too, so they are staying away. Many Hong Kongers are flying Chinese airlines too as the fares are sometimes unbeatable. Return fare to US starts from HKD 3600 including tax even though if it means laying over at Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai for a day or so. Return fare offered by China Eastern or Shanghai Airlines to Japan have been pretty unbeatable too compared to CX's fare. I, for one, prefers not to fly with CX/ KA unless it is business trips. For personal trips, I always opt for airlines other than CX/KA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
