About HK Express

HK Express is a low-cost airline based in Hong Kong. It flies to cities across Asia. The airline is a member of the Cathay Group. Its stated mission is to make travel in Asia easier to reach, with flights that are convenient and affordable.

The airline says it has carried tens of millions of passengers since it became a low-cost carrier. Its travelers fly for leisure, business, family visits and new adventures. The website lists popular routes from Hong Kong to Tokyo, Taipei, Takamatsu and Bangkok. It also points to Hanoi, Seoul, Kaohsiung, Fukuoka and Phuket as places to visit.

Safety is a major theme on the site. HK Express has a 7 star safety rating from Airlineratings.com, which it describes as the highest ranking an airline can get. It is also accredited under the IATA Operational Safety Audit, known as IOSA. This is an international program that checks how an airline manages and controls its flight operations. The airline is a member of the Flight Safety Foundation too, an international non-profit group.

The website lets travelers book flights and manage their bookings. They can check in online, look up flight status and check voucher status. Online check-in opens 48 hours before departure and closes 75 minutes before. Travelers can also redeem miles for flights and book holiday packages. Connecting flights are sold under a service called U-Connect.

Passengers can add only the extras they want. These include checked baggage, seats, inflight meals and travel insurance. There are also paid options such as Priority+ and Flexi, and a travel SIM card. Help pages cover booking rules, baggage, delayed and damaged baggage, flight disruptions, special assistance and membership. The site also lists partner offers for car rental, airport train tickets, cross-border buses and baggage delivery.

The site carries several notices. HK Express moved to Terminal 2 at Hong Kong International Airport on 10 June 2026. It warns travelers about fake emails, text messages, websites and social media accounts that copy the airline. It also gives guidance on power banks and lithium batteries.

The website lists routes, fares, travel services and booking tools for planning a trip. It is the place to look for current notices and help topics.
