In August, the carrier dropped San Francisco from its route network, saying changes in its business plans had forced the closure. It's not just destinations in North America that are being cut, the airline is also reducing frequencies to other destinations including: Bangkok, Hangzhou, Osaka, Okinawa, Seoul, Sapporo, Tokyo, Haikou and Nanjing.

The territory's Air Transport Licensing Authority has been monitoring the airline closely over recent months and it recently said that Hong Kong Airlines financial position “has shown no sign of improvement” and that the situation “is a matter of concern”.
“ATLA decided to ask HKA to take immediate and concrete steps with a view to effectively improving the financial situation shortly. Otherwise, ATLA will consider taking appropriate action in accordance with the Regulations in the light of the circumstances,” warned the authority.
