Hey all.
Just read this on the SCMP today. Aeroflot will be strengthning its presence in Hong Kong over the next few years.
Aeroflot is planning to add a once-weekly cargo flight to HKG in its winter schedule with the DC-10-30F. According to the general manager of Aeroflot Hong Kong, they might considering adding a 2nd weekly cargo flight if demand is strong enough.
Aeroflot is also going to increase its passenger flights from the current 4x weekly flight to a 5x per week service next May. They hope to go daily within two years' time.
The article mentions that Aeroflot currently operates a 777-200 on its HKG route, but I thought they only flew the 767 to HK? Have they recently switched aircraft?

Great to hear Aeroflot is expanding! Well I am sure they could get a full load to HKG using the 777.
