I was on 895 HKG-SIN last Monday and F was full, C was 34/40 and Y was probably 90% full.
A single data point to be sure but at least from a flyer perspective EWR/ORD-HKG-SIN is still a pretty nice way to get to Singapore. Timed connection in HKG and relatively easy upgrade.
I can understand UA perspective that maybe loads are not as regularly full as they would like.
I would like to see HKG-SIN continue just for the additional flexibility it offers for routing and IRROPS. With elimination of SIN-NRT and now SIN-HKG it really limits the choices if things go sideways.
