HK Express Full Miles: award flight from 1,000 miles

HK Express, a low-cost carrier under Cathay Pacific, generally doesn’t participate in Cathay’s frequent flyer program. However, there’s one exception: from time to time, they run “Full Miles Redemption” promotions, where you can book tickets at reduced rates using Cathay Miles.

A new round of this promotion is now live.

  • Book by July 24
  • Travel between August 17 and December 14

One-way redemption sale rates:

  • From 1,000 miles: Yiwu, Guiyang, Nha Trang
  • From 1,500 miles: Kota Kinabalu, Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Manila, Clark
  • From 2,000 miles: Osaka, Fukuoka, Nagoya, Komatsu, Hiroshima, Miyako Island, Ishigaki

A lot of Japanese destinations are features this time.

HK Express offers four fare types, each with different mileage requirements.

  • The above-listed prices are for the Ultra Lite fare, which allows just one small backpack or handbag (up to 7 kg)
  • For 500 more miles, you can upgrade to the Lite fare, which allows a carry-on suitcase (still within the 7 kg limit)
  • Add 2,000 more miles to get the Essential fare, which includes one checked bag

Some examples:

The award ticket cost (miles plus fees) is ok, but beware of the their baggage policy.
