Could be mix and match for some countries, eg Manila has premium travellers ex-HKG due to call centres, one reason there's a CX lounge there, so that might be handed over to CX; but Cebu might be far more leisure and low-cost, so it goes UO. Doesn't mean a city can't have both airlines, too – Manila has a lot of low-cost traffic so maybe some flights CX and some UO.

HK Government’s Transportation Bureau stated KA’s routes need to be retendered.
