HK Express challenged convention by bringing Hong Kong its Low Cost Carrier (LCC). We minimise our cost without cutting corners to offer the best prices and operational efficiency around – whether you’re travelling for business or leisure. We encourage discovery by bringing people to destinations that few others serve while offering guests safe and flexible services.
HK Express is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Cathay Pacific Group. Since our converting to an LCC in 2013, HK Express has been the new rising star offering convenient and reliable air travel to destinations around Asia.
Safety is paramount to HK Express, ensuring the safety of our customers and crew is a 24/7 job where no expense is spared. We have been awarded the 7-star safety rating, the highest ranking an airline can get from Airlineratings.com.
Accredited by the IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA), HK Express is committed to delivering operational safety to our customers and crew. The IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) programme is an internationally recognised and accepted evaluation system designed to assess the operational management and control systems of an airline.
HK Express is also a member of the Flight Safety Foundation. It is an international non-profit organisation whose sole purpose is to provide impartial, independent, expert safety guidance and resources for the aviation and aerospace industry.
HK Express Airways (HK Express) has been ranked third globally and first in Asia for on-time performance among low-cost carriers in the recently released "2023 On-time Performance Review Report" by leading aviation data analytics firm Cirium.
