With the outstanding growth and quality service, Hong Kong Airlines was honored with the “Top 100 Growth Brand in Asia” and the “Supreme Service Award” prizes for two consecutive years.

Qunar.com is also similarly highly regarded by consumers. As Qunar.com has upgraded the “DanBaoTong” system to cover the flights of Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, customers can relax knowing that their flights are fully secure and their details are safe when stored on Qunar.com’s sophisticated database. Qunar.com is the only online travel platform in Mainland China recognized by PCI-DSS, protecting customers during the whole transaction process.
