HK Express Airways has launched Hong Kong’s first direct route to Changzhou, Jiangsu Province, with flights operating three times a week.

“Changzhou is one of our key expansions in our Chinese Mainland network this year,” said HK Express CEO Jeanette Mao. “As our fourth Chinese Mainland destination after Beijing (Daxing), Ningbo and Sanya, we believe this route will attract international visitors to the Yangtze River Delta while offering Jiangsu residents convenient connections through Hong Kong to global destinations. We are committed to offering affordable fares with flexible travel options, and anticipate this Changzhou route will stimulate bilateral tourism, enhance travel experiences, and strengthen Hong Kong’s role as an international aviation hub.”

The route is supported by the airline’s codeshare agreement with Cathay Pacific, enabling passengers to fly with Cathay from Changzhou and neighbouring cities via Hong Kong, and facilitating inbound travellers from around the world to reach Changzhou.
