...Now it is wholly owned, Cathay Pacific can choose to bring Dragonair into oneworld as an affiliate if it wants...
d15.in.oz said:Has anyone heard a reasonably definitive date for this? The oneworld website (oneworld - Cathay Pacific) is oddly vague -
Dragonair, named China's best airline for the past five years by the SkyTrax airline quality organisation and serving more destinations in Mainland China then any other airline based outside the mainland, will join oneworld as an affiliate member later this year.
I've heard a rumour it will be before thengaryjohn951 said:It will open up all of China to oneworld.
I would expect September to be the date, just a guess
I don't see any reason why the price would go up.jasonja3 said:The sooner the better!! This will make a big difference to those trying to fly with OW, and certainly make the new Circle Asia fare much more functional, as long as the price does not change when KA join....

Love them!
Me too.. I flew them quite a bit a numberof years ago before QF started direct flights to Shanghai and Beijing.. service was always fantastic compared to the step down into QF J class for the SYD-HKG-SYD part of my trips..pax1a said:I'd say they are one of the best up there with Singapore and Cathay.

grey goose said:flew with ka earlier this year from hk to shanghai, excellent airline from all accounts. In economy they stack in a few more rows of seats so there isn't much leg room but the meals are really good even on a short 1.5 hour flight.
Should make for some fantastic ff award opportunities in china.
