Do you like the idea of using my flight reviews to also explain a bit about how I access the lounge? Or show more about the airport? Or shall I just stick to the flight itself? Let me know.
Another interesting video. In my opinion it was interesting to see inside the lounges and some footage of the airport, so I would be very happy to see more content like this. The flight review was unbiased and informative as always. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you!
This A330-300 aircraft was with Singapore Airlines before, so the business class product was actually from SQ. HX did not retrofit it when SQ transferred to them
Great video!Their crew are indeed very nice! Actually HX has a newer a330 cabin with a 1-2-1 config! They suspended their IFE few years ago because of their financial problem. They are now recovering and hope you will try their economy class soon!
Thank you very much and your insight! I have seen pictures and videos of their „nicer“ cabin. Most likely I will try HX again, and maybe Economy too. I hope I fit in with my 1.93m :)
@@Llll-490 Glad to hear you received good services from them. BTW, to me, services don't just mean the services provided by the cabin crew, but the infrastructure and the whole experience.
And I tried cx business class and had a terrible experience with a 2-3-2 configuration and ordered food that didn’t come and the flight attendants are very lazy even compared to HX!
It was‘t a very big lounge and certainly not comparable to any of the Cathay Lounges, but still comfortable and a rather small, but delicious food selection.
Thank you so much 🙏:) Yes there was, for sure beer and wine, but I don’t quite remember any other spirits. But i‘m almost certain there should be, I‘d be surprised if not.
HKG truly is a great airport and the Skybridge a must see there! 👍👍 But how disappointing to see that outdated cabin on the HX A330 you travelled in. The seats really look outworn but what made it worse was the dirtyness everywhere around, something that I would have definetely complained about immediately! 😖 No welcome drink... Inop Entertainment screens... No menu.... Food presentation... 😖 How do they survive with competitors such as CX and TG? Thanks for this very informative trip report and always happy landings! Greetings from Germany, Simone 🙋
Hallo Simone, thank you for the kind words. I’m glad I didn’t have high expectations before flying HX;-) But this was another example of how a nice cabin crew can compensate for the hard product flaws. Overall still a flight that is challenging to find positive words for unfortunately.
I enjoyed the visit to the skybridge, that makes Hong Kong a must visit airport! The condition of your aircraft was really bad. When airlines defer maintenance, it makes me very nervous. I would be wondering what items they aren't fixing that may be safety related. Overall, I would pass on flying them until they paid better attention to maintenance and to the other little details that were lacking.
Thanks for your comment. I was quite surprised to see such a cabin, the fare I paid wasn‘t even that cheap. I hope they’ll improve or install the newer cabin which they already have on their A350‘s.
Great video! The cabin looks very tired and old, HK airlines is not a premium brand what I saw on the video but something between low cost and premium brand.
Greetings my friend! WOW! That sky bridge is amazing as I have never been there to see it. How cool that you have a Pan Am bag. We use to dead head the crews often, they were a great legacy carrier. Yes sir, that A/C was very dated and seemed dirty. But I am glad the crew were professional for you, that makes a huge difference. Enjoy your travels , fly safe and God Bless ! ………. ->- Brian
Unfortunately I never got to fly on Pan Am (the bag was a gift from a friend), but I remember seeing the white and blue aircraft when I was a kid. They’re indeed a legend of a carrier.
hong kong airline is one of the worst airline in hk. i have had some very unpleasant experience, old planes, bad service support overseas, one to avoid.
@@forgotmypassport all of their a350s had retired due to their financial problem and seems they won't come back😞but they are getting few 2nd hand a321 from Vietnam and 330s from Hainan airlines next few month.

At 4:17 it was interesting to spot Air New Zealand in the background view, our national carrier., enjoyed viewing your awesome flight review✈👍
Thank you:)
Despite having flown Air New Zealand several times, I‘ve never done a review. Hopefully I can change that soon.
Excellent video, with great detailing. Your style makes the airport and lounge experiences, enjoyable and add to the overall video. Nice job!

They actually did change the color of the seats

The angle of the camera (down) through the glass is amazing. Who ever thought you could see an aircraft taxi under you!
It was a pretty cool experience indeed. Imagine the glass floor would be even bigger :)
Great video, the skybridge really reminds me of the new renovations at my home domestic airport of LGA.
I haven’t traveled through LGA in a decade. Maybe I should check it out again :)
Very nice Video with the Apron View.❤️🙏🏻👍🏼
Thanks:)
I can say you were paying a little bit extra vs CX economy for the extra space only. The service is no way comparable to a standard business class.
I tried their business class and their service was even better than cathay

Great Product For A Short Haul Fligth.Great Trip Report
Thanks a lot. But I hope they are not using this aircraft for longhaul with all these cabin defects.
Hi, how’s your experience at Hong Kong Airlines Lounge?
It was‘t a very big lounge and certainly not comparable to any of the Cathay Lounges, but still comfortable and a rather small, but delicious food selection.
@@forgotmypassportthanks for your reply. Any alcoholic beverage option at the lounge?
Just subscribed to your channel, btw. Cheers!
Thank you so much 🙏:)

機体のデザインが好きなんだ。
I used to fly on their a350 back there, was nice. However, from your vid, I would not pay to fly them as well as you said.
I saw on other flight reports that their A350 has a nicer Business Class, even in a 1-2-1 layout. Probably I‘d fly HX again if I knew it was the A350.
@@forgotmypassport They are not flying A350 anymore, all have been returned.
Oh already? A pity :(
Based on your vid, it is NOT an airline I would choose to fly. It looks awful.
And the ticket wasn’t even that cheap. Hopefully they’ll install (and maintain) their new cabin on the A330, which they already have on their A350.
hong kong airline is one of the worst airline in hk. i have had some very unpleasant experience, old planes, bad service support overseas, one to avoid.
That doesn’t sound good. What about their new A350, in terms of hard product? I‘m still considering trying their newer fleet.
