I think in time, it will be branded Air China HK and the changes that occur with this will be as one expects.
China hates HK, its traditions, and its people. Why wouldn't the airline be forced to be subservient to the Mainland? The only trick will be to figure out to what degree Hainan/HKA/HKE will be permitted to fill the void, ie, compete with an Air China subsidiary.
