It also applies to overseas passengers travelling to different Mainland China cities via Hong Kong. The scheme was expected to be expanded beyond Hangzhou and Wuhan in the period ahead. "Linking the Trunk and Branch, Connecting Urban and Remote service enables Hong Kong to align with the national aviation network development by linking the Mainland’s ‘internal circulation’ aviation network with Hong Kong’s ‘external circulation’ international aviation network, thereby upgrading Hong Kong from its previous role as a super connector to a pivotal point in the country’s dual circulation strategy," Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Secretary for Transport and Logistics, Mable Chan, said. Greater Bay Airlines (GBA) welcomed the initiative. "The airline believes that this innovative and deeply integrated model will further strengthen the linkage between the Chinese Mainland’s aviation network and Hong Kong’s international aviation network, creating a more efficient and synergistic route network," GBA said.
