Is FedEx still considering bringing there 77F's down here?

[Will H]

I wonder what they're bringing from Australia to HK. Usually the route is the other way around. But probably not too bad if only once weekly.

[Jayden Laing]

EK might not be taking anything back to HKG Will because there could be freight in HKG waiting to be taken back to Dubai.

Food, fruit, seafood, wine, etc to Hkg dont forget CX flies a weekly 747 cargo to hkg
