Comments[edit]

If CR Airways still has a CRJ (and I know a pilot for them who says they don't), why is it not mentioned any more on their website? As I understand it, there is a CRJ still sitting around in CR Airways colours, but it is owned by the previous management who are looking for a buyer. It is not part of the current CR Airways fleet.Paul Christensen (Hong Kong) 07:10, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The name of this article should be "Hong Kong Airlines", not "Hong Kong Air"[edit]

Seems like it was briefly named Hong Kong Air (or HongKong Air?). [1] [2] [3] [4]Instantnood 18:43, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
And your point being?--Huaiwei 15:06, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Destinations[edit]

Are they really flying to Daegu and Phuket? In their official website it shows only mainland destinations. KK kap 04:42, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

GA Review[edit]

This review is transcluded from Talk:Hong Kong Airlines/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Comments:

  1. In sentence "Chinese carrier, Hainan Airlines, and Mr Mung Kin Keung took over the airline in 2006 by acquiring a 45 percent and 55 percent holdings in the airline, respectively.", rmeove first two commas. Removed as suggested. Aviator006 (talk) 04:09, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  2. The comma after China in sentence "In April 2005, the Hong Kong Air Transport Licensing Authority (ATLA) granted a five-year licence to transport passengers, cargo and mail to China, the airline was free to apply for traffic rights to 10 cities in China." should be a semicolon. Updated as suggested. Aviator006 (talk) 04:09, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  3. In sentence "The holdings will be transferred to Grand China Air, a new holding company of Hainan Airlines." "will" should be "would". Updated as suggested. Aviator006 (talk) 04:09, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  4. The sentence "Two months later, on 7 August, Mr Mung Kin Keung acquired the other 55 percent of the airline and became the controlling shareholder; and its director on 13 August." sounds awkward. Sentence rephrased to 'Two months later, Mr Mung Kin Keung acquired the remaining 55 percent of the airline and became the controlling shareholder on 7 August; and its director on 13 August.' Aviator006 (talk) 04:09, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  5. Citation needed to indicate Siem Reap, Laoag, and Subic Bay as terminated destinations. Citation added. Aviator006 (talk) 04:09, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  6. Citation needed for Retired fleet section. Citation added. Aviator006 (talk) 04:09, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  7. Can a brief summary of the Loyalty programmes be added? Brief summary 'The Fortune Wings Club is the loyalty programme for Hong Kong Airlines and its sister airlines, including Grand China Air, Grand China Express, Hainan Airlines, Hong Kong Express Airways, Lucky Air and West Air. Membership benefits include air ticket redemption and upgrade; VIP members have additional privileges of dedicated First or Business Class check in counters, lounge access, bonus mileage and extra baggage allowance.' added. Aviator006 (talk) 04:09, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  8. I noticed this article has less detail then some of the other airlines articles I have reviewed such as Cathay Pacific. Can any more detail pertaining to this airline be added to the article? History expanded. Aviator006 (talk) 14:05, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am placing the article on hold. Dough4872 (talk) 17:17, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

All comments reviewed and updated in the article. Re comments 6-7, both Terminated Destinations and Retired Fleet have newly added citations, they are based on (1) previously news articles mentioning the airline's operation to those destinations and (2) the current destination and fleet information, to give the conclusion that those destinations and fleet are no longer served/used. Re comment 8, I have expanded the History section with more info. I understand it is significantly smaller than your previous GA Review of Cathay Pacific (CX), this is simply because CX is over 60 years old, while HK Airlines is only 8 years old. Please review the History section and let me know if it is no okay. Cheers! Aviator006 (talk) 14:05, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The history section, along with the rest of the article, looks good, so I will pass it. Dough4872 (talk) 00:44, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

GA Reassessment[edit]

This discussion is transcluded from Talk:Hong Kong Airlines/GA2. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the reassessment.

individual Reassessment[edit]

This article does not contain any details regarding the service of the article. It also has a significant number of first-hand sources, which does not fufill the requirement of the good article criteria. There are also sections that do not cite any sources. Some vital elements of an airline article like "accidents and incidents" or "livery" is not contained in this article. Therefore I strongly suggest reassessing this article as well as m improving this article. Josephshlee (talk) 03:47, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. Because of inactivity, the issues have not yet been addressed in 2 months and as such, I'm going to demote the article. It currently fails 3a. There has been no opposition to demoting. --MrClog (talk) 14:03, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
