When Varig first started HK flight, they initially planned Rio-Nairobi-HK, but rerouted through Rio-Jo'burg-Bangkok-HK. IMO this is not very practical, any flight with more than one stop means you're wasting too much time on landing/take-off plus landing charge.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BTW, this is my first post and you've started some really good thread and can't believe no one is posting.</description></item><item><title>Hong Kong - Brazil air route suggestion</title><link>http://aircraftbargains.com/cs/forums/thread/1789.aspx</link><pubDate>Mon, 19 Aug 2002 14:22:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">a23efcf1-9e75-4ff9-be18-cd9cb68b9485:1789</guid><dc:creator>lucasiu</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://aircraftbargains.com/cs/forums/thread/1789.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://aircraftbargains.com/cs/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=15&amp;PostID=1789</wfw:commentRss><description>A revised suggestion of Hong Kong - Brazil air route suggestion is made after reading comments on the 1st edition of the air route.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This new air route would have routing of Hong Kong -&amp;gt; Los Angeles -&amp;gt; Rio De Janeiro -&amp;gt; Sao Paolo -&amp;gt; Los Angeles -&amp;gt; Hong Kong, having frequency of 1 flight per week, operated by Cathay Pacific &amp;amp; VARIG.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Such routing allows more passengers per flight while not causing unfairness to passengers going to either Rio De Janeiro or Sao Paolo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If passenger amount allows, then there would be a route of Hong Kong -&amp;gt; Los Angeles -&amp;gt; Sao Paolo -&amp;gt; Rio De Janeiro -&amp;gt; Los Angeles -&amp;gt; Hong Kong, so to provide 2 flights per week service to the 2 Brazilian cities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
