Fleet

Dragonair (IATA: KA, ICAO: HDA) is a Chinese airline established in 1985, based in one of Asia's most strategic aviation hubs. The airline operates from Hong Kong International Airport, a major crossroads for regional and intercontinental traffic in the Asia-Pacific region.

The network focuses on connecting Hong Kong with key cities across mainland China, Southeast Asia, and beyond. This hub-and-spoke model positions Dragonair as an important carrier for both point-to-point and connecting passengers in the region. The airline's operations benefit from Hong Kong's status as a global financial centre and transport nexus.

Dragonair's fleet comprises modern Airbus narrow-body and wide-body aircraft: the A320 and A321 for regional routes, and the A330 for longer-haul operations. This mix enables efficient service across diverse route profiles, from short regional hops to extended international flights, supporting the airline's role as a regional carrier with intercontinental reach.
