In itself no. I am the frst one to critize anything less than daily and the seasonals. (Even though this schedule fits me personally fine. Go out on a friday, spend full saturday and sunday in HKG and be back in time for work on monday morning)

Add SK963/964 from ARN to the picture and suddenly two of the major AY feeders are under pressure from direct flights.

Add that CX offers one-stop connections in HKG to all of AY's chinese destinations, and more. Sure, PEK, PVG and such won't be time-efficient via HKG.
