Despite the tortured English in the advisory, the Thai national airline is informing all existing bookings of the cancellation of the direct flights and re-routing.

A few emails to The Thaiger from Hong Kong customers complained that the flights were very popular with residents wanting to fly down on weekends for some beach relaxation away from the busy Chinese island territory.

“I think crazy story for such a great destination and many here in Hongkong cannot beleave it…… so need to change to Dragon Air now…. or transit in Bangkok.”

A quick check on the internet showed that Air Asia is still flying direct Hong Kong-Phuket flights. We’re sure you will inform us of any others. Please comment on our Facebook page The Thaiger.
