Hong Kong Airlines have announced that it will launch an all Club Class service flying daily non-stop between London and Hong Kong in 2012.
From 8th March 2012, Hong Kong Airlines will operate flight HX876 departing from London Gatwick Airport, North Terminal, at 2130, arriving in Hong Kong at 1805 the following day.

The new service will be operated with a dedicated fleet of three brand new Airbus A330-200s featuring a unique all Club Class seating configuration. Each of these ultra-modern aircraft will showcase two premium cabins: ‘Club Premier’ and ‘Club Classic’. Both Clubs have been created to deliver the airline’s exceptional signature service.

Gerard Clarke, General Manager UK for Hong Kong Airlines told TravelPlus: “We have gained a reputation for outstanding service over the past five years and we look forward to extending this to our new flagship route, connecting two global business capitals of the world. The concept for the all Club Class aircraft will provide passengers with a private jet style ambience and an exceptional crew to guest ratio, and we are confident that we have the right knowledge and experience to make a success of the new all Club Class daily service.”
