The campaign is part of the Airport Authority Hong Kong’s “World of Winners” promotion.

In all, flights for half a million tourists and 80,000 residents are being offered to boost post-pandemic tourism.

Winners of earlier phases of the giveaway told HKFP that the taxes they were asked to pay were steeper than expected.
