Does anyone know which of the HKG/LAX flights tend to be more full in Y than the other?
Also slightly o/t but can anyone suggest a good child friendly hotel in HKG and which is better, Kowloon, TST or Hong Kong Island.
Cheers
Let me answer that! HKG-LAX in Y, 882 fuller than 880. LAX-HKG, pretty evenly split.
But what determines your flight choice should never be based on how full a flight is, unless you want to upgrade with miles or op-up, because even if a flight is shown empty on seat map, it may get pretty full afterwards due to non-rev and other factors. But for comfort level, go with CX880, you will get use to jet-lag much better.
I would dare say nearly all 4-5 star hotels in Hong Kong are all child-friendly. Hong Kong is so covinenent, transportation wise, that it really doesn't matter which side you stay on.
