Methinks that CX are getting a little hot under the collar with the new Hong Kong Airlines flight launching in March…

That is a hell of a lot of bonus miles though for 2nd trip onwards.

It may also reflect Qantas coming off the route and therefore be an incentive to attract oneworld earners across to both Cathay and Marco Polo Club, I suppose.

It’ll be interesting to see how Air New Zealand gets on with it’s HKG-LHR route and the entry of Hong Kong Airlines, especially if CX do indeed ‘up the ante’ in response.
