HK Airlines and YUE join forces to take Lantau flavours to the sky

Hong Kong Airlines has partnered with YUE, the Cantonese restaurant at Sheraton Hong Kong Tung Chung Hotel, to unveil a new dining concept that elevates local tastes and culinary heritage from land to sky.

Hong Kong Airlines said: “We are thrilled to partner with YUE to offer our business class travellers a dining experience that profoundly blends culture and cuisine.

We firmly believe that an exceptional flight experience stems from an uncompromising attention to detail."

By seamlessly combining the airborne journey with exquisite flavours of Cantonese cuisine, passengers can savour authentic Hong Kong cuisine above the clouds, experience the unique spirit of Hong Kong, and witness our commitment to putting passengers first and striving for excellence,” added Hong Kong Airlines.
