Making a booking

If you are making a booking make sure you first select your preferred currency. Booking looks straightforward but note that the initial fare shown is ‘before taxes’, which can add quite a bit. You’ll have to click to see the summary after making your selection. Travellers have a choice of four fare levels, with the most basic fare offering only a small bag that can fit under the seat.

Food is also an optional extra which can be pre-booked online for main meals and you may order inflight for instant specials, drinks and alcoholic beverages from their onboard menu. Check out their offerings and pre-book via “Manage My Booking”. Online check-in is available from 48 hours before your flight.

Apart from Malaysia, Hong Kong Express also flies to :

• Mainland China
• Japan
• Philippines
• South Korea
• Taiwan
• Thailand
• Vietnam

The airline is an all Airbus operation, using Airbus A320, A320-neo, A321 and A321neo aircraft, in an all economy class layout. They are justifiably proud of their 7-star safety rating and celebrated reaching 22 million passengers on their 10th Anniversary in 2023 with a new brand identity and crew uniforms.
