2 daily?
What is the another one (VS) flight number?~~


Was there some BA flights to get to Manila after landed into HKG???

The 2Daily VS flight was VS200/201 and VS202/203...

And BA use to fly to MNL/TPE via HKG...

Y did they cancel the connection flight after landed into HKG?
low demanding?

Just guess:
Is it because VS is going to use A380 for VS200/201 after 2007?
(The passenger capacity is already enlarged and don't need to operate 2 flights)

But I don't think that one A380 plane can solve the huge capacity of pax between SYD<->HKG,
as there is a quite large demanding for this route at the moment~

Perhaps, one A380 may not be able to take all pax up, in comparing with two A346s~

Most likely not... Since VS is not receiving their A380 until 2008... Or latest 2009...
I think if VS238/239 pick up good loading on LHR-HKG and did ease the pressure off VS200/201 to allow good loading on LHR-SYD...
Then we could see VS238/239 after 2007... And with the rate LHR-HKG demand is increasing, we could see them continue operating after 2007...
And also to see A380 at HKG with VS... But will they fly VS200/201 or VS238/239... That depence on the demand on LHR-SYD/LHR-HKG...
