Hence you are seeing three carriers (and four soon when O8 enters the market) as oppose to just two on the latter. Also once the new SFO-HKG flight commences there will be more nonstop flights to HKG ex-SFO than ex-LAX.
Agreed. The demand of LA residents wanting to visit relatives in HK is just very low. Family/relative ties between LA & HK is also very low.
