The additional flight will commence on a scheduled basis from 31 October out of London and support the two daily BA flights into the territory.
The additional flight will be serviced by a B747-8 freighter and will depart Hong Kongairport at 0605 on Saturday mornings. The flight to Hong Kong will stop in Frankfurt and will return to London via New Delhi.
