Flying:

The normal AHK operation to support the DHL Express network sees most flights, departing the Hong Kong hub at 0300-0500 local time, and arriving at the outports 2-4 hours later. The aircraft remain at the outports during the day, then fly back to Hong Kong late evening, the crew resting during the days at the outports in quality hotels. There are also some other day/evening local time flight patterns.

Cargo is predominantly DHL Express freight; and AHK is highly focused on achieving on time performance. AHK also operates a small number of dedicated charter flights on behalf of Cathay Cargo.

AHK seeks pilots who have a can-do attitude, a positive outlook, and who will be a good fit with our current agile, flexible, and proactive pilot workforce. AHK is proud of maintaining a diverse work place.

AHK expects our pilots to maintain a high standard of professional knowledge, prepare thoroughly for each flight, function effectively in a diverse team, operate according to our published procedures, and honestly report all hazards and incidents. In return AHK supports a non-punitive safety culture, and seeks only to learn from the windows into our operation provided by all incidents.
