Australian airline Qantas will increase services between Melbourne and Hong Kong by three flights per week from 01 April, 2008.
The executive general manager of the carrier, John Borghetti, said that with the additional services, the airline would operate 10 services per week on the Melbourne-Hong Kong route.
The new services will be operated by two-class, 297-seat A330-300 aircraft.
“The new flights will complement our current daily three class B747-400 services on the route, and signal a move towards a double daily Melbourne-Hong Kong service in the future,” said Borghetti.
The new Melbourne-Hong Kong flights will operate on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays, departing Melbourne at 11:55am, and returning from Hong Kong at 9:05pm.
Qantas recently announced two services per week between Melbourne and Shanghai, commencing 11 March.
