Ein Hong Kong Transit ist nicht mehr so ganz easy wie vorher …
Hong Kong wird ab 01.06. den Transit erlauben. Da gibt es jetzt neue Regeln zu beachten.
Cathay Pacific
“From 1 June 2020, air transit services at Hong Kong International Airport will resume in phases. Passengers travelling with Cathay Pacific and Cathay Dragon will be able to transit Hong Kong if:
Their itinerary is contained in a single booking and
The connection time to their next Cathay Pacific or Cathay Dragon operated flight is within 8 hours.
Subject to both requirements being met, from 1 June 2020, transit connections will be available between Hong Kong and the destinations that we operate flights to.
Transit restrictions
In this first phase, transiting to and from destinations in mainland China is not available.
All sea-to-air ferry services (Greater Bay Area to Hong Kong) and air-to-sea ferry services (Hong Kong to Greater Bay Area) are also suspended.
New Flight bookings
Please note that we are currently updating our booking systems to reflect the new transit requirements, which will be made available as soon as possible. We apologise if you cannot book your desired itinerary immediately.”

Hong Kong Airlines

– Itinerary for both flights is under one booking and operated by Hong Kong Airlines
– Connecting time is within 8 hours
Except for Mainland China, transit service in Hong Kong currently applies to Hong Kong Airlines services between Hong Kong and other destinations which we operate to, subject to local travel restrictions.
All sea-to-sea or sea-to-air ferry services between Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area remain suspended until further notice.”
Passagiere von Hong Kong Airlines können die Plaza Premium Lounge verwenden.

Mit diesen neuen Bestimmungen ist eigentlich weitgehend nur ein Transit mit Cathay Pacific oder Hong Kong Airlines möglich. Auch Singapore Airlines verbindet über Hong Kong, aber dann fällt mir eigentlich keine weitere Airline mehr ein.
Schau doch in unserer Boardingarea DE Facebook Gruppe vorbei –> Vielfliegerlounge
SQ verbindet ueber HKG? Welche Fluege sollen das denn sein? Mir ist nur SQ001/002 bekannt, aber das ist nur ein Stop-Over da mit der eingesetzten B77W kein Non-Stop Flug von SIN nach SFO moeglich ist.
Also ein technischer Stop aber kein Transit was ja hier das eigentliche Thema waere.
zur Info: Das Einreiseverbot für non-resident in die SAR-Zone (HKG) das am 18.Juni auslaufen sollte ist bis 18.September verlängert worden.
