A good initiative but all the 'blogs' in the world, an extra runway and another terminal will not improve the situation much until the 'cousins' up north open up their airspace and remove the 'glass wall'. What happened to the mooted integration of the area's airspace? I was under the impression that we would all be talking to 'Pearl Approach' by now, nearly 17 years after the handover.
The delays I am experiencing on a regular basis, even in Hong Kong's version of 'CAVOK' weather, are concerning, and do not bode well for the coming summer. HKIA's reputation as an efficient and reliable hub may well be under threat due to delays and missed connections.
