The twice\u2011weekly flights mark a further expansion of the airline\u2019s European network, bringing Athens into its scheduled cargo route map as the 14th destination.<\/p>\n<p>The new service operates every Monday and Thursday. Flight RH394 departs Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) at 08:00 and arrives in Athens (ATH) at 17:00 local time. The return flight, RH395, leaves Athens at 19:00 and reaches Hong Kong at 11:50 the following day.<\/p>\n<p>Hong Kong Air Cargo said the launch reflects its ability to deliver tailored cargo solutions in response to specific demand, strengthening connectivity between Asia and Europe.<\/p>\n<p>The carrier has also recently expanded its freighter fleet as part of a capacity growth programme. In early January 2026, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stattimes.com\/air-cargo\/hong-kong-air-cargo-expands-fleet-with-sixth-a330p2f-1357756\">Hong Kong Air Cargo welcomed its sixth Airbus A330\u2011200P2F<\/a> (passenger\u2011to\u2011freighter converted aircraft), boosting its right\u2011sized cargo capacity for regional and long\u2011haul operations. The addition of the A330\u2011200P2F strengthens the airline\u2019s ability to support customers with greater flexibility and reliability, as it continues to optimise its network and expand its freighter footprint across continents.<\/p>\n<p>Sales for the new route are open, with enquiries being handled by the airline\u2019s sales teams in Hong Kong and overseas.<\/p>\n<p><!-- !{data.story}--><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blockads.fivefilters.org\"> <\/a><\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/blockads.fivefilters.org\/acceptable.html\"> <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; bringing Athens into its scheduled <span class=\"match\">cargo<\/span> route map as the 14th &#8230; its ability to deliver tailored <span class=\"match\">cargo<\/span> solutions in response to &#8230; 2026, Hong Kong Air <span class=\"match\">Cargo<\/span> welcomed its sixth Airbus A330 &#8230; aircraft), boosting its right\u00e2\u0080\u0091sized <span class=\"match\">cargo<\/span> capacity for regional and long &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-76404","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","wpcat-1-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76404","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=76404"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76404\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=76404"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=76404"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=76404"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
