Understand the aims of Hong Kong Express. The airline wants to provide quick, cost-efficient travel to Mainland China. To accomplish this goal, Hong Kong Express selected the Embraer 170 as its fleet aircraft.
Probe the advantages of the Embraer 170. The size of the plane contributes to the overall efficiency of Hong Kong Express flights. The cabin can be easily cleaned and restocked, shortening the turnaround time between flights.
Avoid the dreaded middle seat-there are none on an Embraer jet. Embraers seat fewer people in a 2-by-2 style. Passengers can move about more freely and interact with companions easily. Crew service is also quicker.
