EgyptAir said Monday that it will operate flights to Hong Kong on September 17. Chairman of EgyptAir Captain Ahmed Adel said the national carrier aims to open new markets in one of the important international cities, noting that the Far East market is a promising one for aviation movement. The new route between Cairo and Hong Kong will launch as a twice-weekly service on Mondays and Fridays with a stop over in Bangkok, he added. He also said Egyptair will fly its Airbus A330-300 aircraft on the route, which it configures with two classes. <br/>
