Mongolia hopes to add more flights to Hong Kong, increase visa-free travel and boost tourism, the country’s top diplomat in the city has said.
“Hong Kong is one of the largest transport hubs of the Asian region and Mongolians really enjoy using Hong Kong [to get to] other destinations as well,” Consul General Khulan Onkhoon said.
She said she also aimed to promote Mongolia as a destination to more Hong Kong residents, especially those who enjoyed the outdoors and wide open spaces.
In an exclusive interview with the Post, Khulan said state-owned MIAT Mongolian Airlines was planning to expand flights to Hong Kong to two a day next year. It now operates nine flights a week during summer and five a week during winter.
