HK Express Jettisons CEO After Holiday Flight Cancellations
Budget carrier HK Express replaced its CEO following the sudden cancellation of more than a dozen flights during China’s weeklong National Day holiday, after a procedural issue left it short staffed, affecting vacation plans for hundreds of travelers.
Hong Kong Express Airways Ltd., whose investors include China’s HNA Group, said in a statement that Zhong Guosong had been named as the company’s acting CEO “in light of recent challenges,” according to numerous media reports. It did not provide additional details.
Unnamed sources in the reports said former CEO Andrew Cowen had been replaced following last week’s cancellation of 18 flights that were set for the week-long holiday in China that runs from Oct. 1 to Oct. 8. Hong Kong has its own public holiday calendar and doesn’t observe the entire week off, but was scheduled to have two vacation days during the week.
