Not sure about “truly done” but definitely not the world class carrier it was once thought to be.

This new airline can not be good news for CX. They’ll have the advantage of obtaining equipment and desperate crew at rock bottom prices resulting in minimal operating costs. Conversely they’re looking at a dead market with month after month of 98-99% pax reductions. While that will change it remains to be seen just what HK is going to look like post COVId. I think most would be surprised if it regains anywhere near its previous levels but the question remains just how much? HK has seen one of the worlds biggest traffic hits. Chek Lap Kok is a bloody ghost town. Sad
