I was a little nervous about using HK Airlines after reading the Tripadvisor reviews so having now had the experience here’s my pros and cons:
Pros
- Really generous legroom in economy class
- Polite staff
- Clean cabin and toilets
Cons
- Very slow at check in despite checking in online and having to pay to make sure we sat together
- A confusing gate experience when the staff swapped the signage for the boarding priorities leading to some unhappy punters before they even got onboard
- Food ok, fairly small portions, limited options so if you didn’t like beef noodles then you were going hungry at dinner! Tip: don’t bother asking for a wine…all drinks are just poured from a can or small bottle into a paper cup đ
- Unloading was possibly the longest experience we’ve ever had, again leading to more rumblings in the ranks, particularly from the poor souls with young children desperate to escape….but at least by the time we got through immigration our bags were waiting for us…always a silver lining…
In summary, wouldn’t hesitate to use this airline again given value for money when on a budget.
Arrived safely!
