Business travellers and holidaymakers planning to book tickets between Hong Kong and India have a reason to rejoice as Dragonair is boosting its flights frequency linking these two major Asian destinations.
The sister airline of Cathay Pacific, Dragonair is all set to operate an additional service between Indian city of Kolkata and Hong Kong from October 4. The extra service will bring the total number of flights from four to five per week, offering greater flexibility and seamless connectivity to travellers seeking tickets for air travel on the route.
The airline currently offers tickets for flights running on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It is going to ply a new service on Thursday from October 4 onward.
“The response to our Kolkata service has been very promising. Our extra flight will offer travellers from India more options and greater convenience when travelling to Hong Kong and enable them to connect seamlessly with flights to more than 170 destinations in the Dragonair and Cathay Pacific network,” said the airline’s General Manager South Asia, Middle East and Africa.
According to the sources, it is the only carrier that connects these two prominent Asian destinations after Air India Express drew back its operations a year ago. It is expected that the new operations would meet the growing demands and do good to all kinds of fliers who remain on a constant lookout for tickets.
With a vast network, unrivalled onboard entertainment, state of the art fleet and added options for tickets on flights, the Hong Kong-based carrier enjoys immense popularity among global travellers. It is also an affiliate member of oneworld, one of the largest global airline alliances.
