Hong Kong, Japan Reach Open-Skies Agreement
(Cargonews Asia)
Hong Kong and Japan have reached an open-skies agreement to liberalize air services, enabling unlimited air passenger and cargo services between Hong Kong and cities in Japan.
Currently there are 154 passenger flights and 59 freighter services operating between Hong Kong and Japanese cities including Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Fukuoka, Sapporo, Sendai and Okinawa each week.
The arrangement will enable unlimited air passenger and cargo services to all of these cities, excluding Tokyo, and flights between Hong Kong and Kagoshima and Okayama can also be launched.
The two major Hong Kong airlines – Cathay Pacific and Dragonair – welcomed the new arrangement, but only Hong Kong Express announced that it would be applying for the right to fly to Nagoya, Kagoshima and Okayama. The airline had previously announced that it would be flying to Okinawa starting from April.

Some of my opinions are not my own, but I would fancy to say nearly all of them should be credited to the various authors. Deming disciple. I stubbornly persist.
