On August 24, 2007, Hong Kong Airlines starts a new route from Hong Kong to Ho Chi Minh City. This new service enhances the link between Hong Kong and South East Asia.

Ho Chi Minh City is located at the Mekong River Delta, with over 7 million populations. As a result, it is the heart of economic and tourism development in Vietnam, playing a significant role of the country's advancement.

The government of Ho Chi Minh City targets to increase 12% of gross domestic productivity in 2008 when compared with the current year. In order to have significant growth in economy, the local government targets to attract foreign and high technology investments. These measures will further increase its ranking in industrial production in South East Asia.

Hong Kong Airlines is the third airline operator incorporated in Hong Kong and approved by the Hong Kong SAR government, serving travellers with frequent services from Hong Kong to Mainland cities as well as extending its international network to cover Asian cities in Korea, Japan, the Philippines, Myanmar and Thailand.

As a Hong Kong-based airline, and with a fast-growing fleet, Hong Kong Airlines is determined to further expand its markets from Hong Kong to the Mainland, Taiwan, and the rest of Asia, building international networks and enhancing its image all over the world.

Since its establishment, Hong Kong Airlines has been upgrading its fleet and expanding its service team. It has also launched e-ticketing and real-time on-line flight information service. With the imminent introduction of its on-line reservation system, Hong Kong Airlines is confident to serve the community and air travellers with professionalism and high quality service.
