LONDON-HONGKONG

AIR SERVICE

INAUGURATION PROBABLE AT END

OF NEXT YEAR

PLANS WELL ADVANCED

(Telegraph Special.)

Exclusive information obtained by the Telegraph from authoritative sources in London points to the probable provision, during the latter part of next year, of a weekly aerial service between Hongkong and London catering for both passengers and mail, under conditions permitting of the journey being accomplished in ten or eleven days.

So far as can be estimated at present, the fare for the trip will be about £175. This will include hotel accommodation at stopping-places, as well as tips, etc. "everything excepting beer and bacey," to quote the

words of one informant.

Within two years of the inauguration of the service, which will, most likely, be linked up with the Imperial Airways route from Singapore to London, the time will probably be cut down to eight or nine days, with a corresponding reduction in the fare.
