Swire Pacific chairman Merlin Swire surprised diners over lunch yesterday by revealing he and his wife had enjoyed a pleasant holiday flight - with HK Express.
Eyebrows were raised - this is a rival airline, and a budget one, no less!
Swire, 44, said the experience went smoothly and the service on the low-cost trip to Hainan was perfectly fine.
Staff at Cathay Pacific and Cathay Dragon might take this as a little hint that they might like to step up their game.
