Just heard a rumour that BMI (British Midland) are to fly to HKG from UK

Anyone confirm?

Cheers

Scheduled or charter ? Be interesting to know. Previously Monarch and BM have been to HKG, but as one-off charters in the summer/autumn.

Scheduled I guess. The rumour I heard was that they had just got government approval for the route

When was Monarch and BM last in HKG? BM perhaps back in they days they flew their 707s here and Monarch only for the strike quite a few years back.

Perhaps BM are going to codeshare, as I believe that you need approval for that as well. Sir Michael Bishop has said that BMI have no plans to fly to HKG at the moment.
