Hong Kong Airlines has one of the most amazing business class fares I’ve seen in a long time. You can fly to Asia for less than $600 roundtrip. That’s a good price for coach and this is for business.
In fact you can fly Los Angeles – Shanghai between September and March for as little as $560 roundtrip in business class using Hong Kong Airlines’ daily service onboard a new Airbus A350. And Shanghai isn’t the only destination.
Let’s take a look at Los Angeles – Shanghai. You can find availability with Google Flights and book on the Hong Kong Airlines website or with Expedia.
God Save the Points says fares are available not just to Shanghai but to Bangkok as well. There are also reports that Bali works.
Hong Kong Airlines is the number two carrier in Hong Kong. They’ve been rapidly expanding to North America. Hong Kong Airlines is owned by HNA Group, parent of Hainan Airlines which has been selling stakes in travel businesses around the world.

Rather than treating this as a mistake fare I choose to believe they’re looking to generate interest in and cash from their Los Angeles service. US airlines, when they struggled a decade ago, would find themselves running big sales to raise immediate cash too.
You won’t credit miles from this fare to a US frequent flyer program, but you can top off a Fortune Wings Club account — after earning miles from these flights — with points transfers from Wyndham.
Already gone. I saw that fair valid for a few minutes then now back to normal pricing.
Nope not gone just booked one.
Dates are limited, but I booked two tickets SFO/BKK for February around 1pm EST. $728 p/p r/t. In J, already ticketed.
OMG! Love Hong Kong Airlines.
Nope. They’re gone. Can’t even get Hong Kong Airlines to show up in Google Flights.
Amazing — thank you! Just booked for our annual trip back to China for Lunar New Year 🙂
When VFTW, OMAAT and TPG sites posted this deal, expect it to die within 5 mins.. lol… I booked one trip to SGN in Nov… let the waiting game begin 🙂
Not dead. Just booked San Francisco to Shanghai February 1 to the sixth through Expedia less than a half hour ago
hubby was able to book three tickets for dates 2/5 – 2/20 to vietnam! Hopefully they wont cancel the flights
How do you book business class SEAT on HX? (Have run thru the site & app. Called and was on hold for 60 mins, no answer. #55 inline for online chat)??
What is the trick? Do you keep changing the dates looking for the lower price?
I have looked on Google Flights and the Hong Kong Airline sites.
@Larry The deal is dead. It died yesterday.
My husband was able to get 3 tickets (myself, him, and our 2yo) but we didn’t add our son which is a lap child. If we call Hong Kong Airlines to add him, does anyone know if they will charge us the fees off the price we paid or the current price of the seat? Thanks!
Gary do you mind sharing your thoughts with all of us that booked this deal regarding :
Where to credit the flights ?
If fortune wings club is the only option are there any promotions to stuck up before flying and joining ?
Approximate amount of miles to be earned for those few flight options we had and best use of them in future ?
Thank you
