Hong Kong will be the next destination for Qantas’s Airbus A380 fleet, with the airline announcing plans to operate the double decker four times a week between Sydney and the key Asian financial hub.

The airline says QF127 Sydney-Hong Kong will be operated by A380s on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, with same days returns as QF128 from Hong Kong to Sydney, from January 15 next year.

Qantas says the delivery of its eleventh and twelfth A380s later this year will allow it to operate the aircraft to Hong Kong, plus increase Melbourne-Singapore-London services from six times weekly to daily, and  Melbourne-Los Angeles A380 flights from four flights per week to daily.
