Definitely has to be a European company, the photo has five old men in suits two of which look like they are having a tug of war over the model, probably one is French and the other is German.

Who ever gets to fly these well used soon to be "Dream Fleet" aircraft will be far superior to any other lowly DHL pilot, that they will avoid making eye contact in crew rooms with anyone who doesn't fly a proper Airbus and be general pricks in anyway possible between the hours of 1900z to 0700z

Oh and they will talk constantly how much better it was at their previous Airline.

2 aircraft will be based and operated from HK commencing Jan 18 . The aircraft will be operating for Air Hong Kong by ASL Ireland . It will be a very similar operation to the previous introduction of the A300-600 pax to freighter that happened 2013-1014 ish

Well, that could be an option. It seems very likely that the first A330 will go to HKG.
Being operated by ASL would make sense. We will see.

Where did you get the date from?

Air Hong Kong Buyout

Cathay Pacific (CX, Hong Kong Chek Lap Kok) has announced plans to buy out DHL Group of its 40% stake in Air Hong Kong (LD, Hong Kong Chek Lap Kok).

Cathay Pacific, which owns the majority 60% stake, said in a Hong Kong Stock Exchange disclosure on Friday, July 7, that it had entered into a non-binding MOU which will take effect on December 31, 2018 ending the two sides' current joint venture and block space agreements.

Other terms of the deal include Air Hong Kong and DHL Group entering into a sale/leaseback transaction regarding the carrier's eight A300-600(F) freighters. A new block space agreement will also be negotiated under which Air Hong Kong will sell space to DHL on an agreed network of overnight Asian freight routes.

The value of the transaction has been put at around HKD36.3 million Hong Kong dollars (USD4.64 million).
