    Hong Kong airport development plans / Discussion with a local doctor back from Gaza

    On today's Backchat, we're talking about developments at the airport.

    In its annual report, the Airport Authority revealed that passenger traffic had reached 80 percent of pre-pandemic levels, with full recovery expected by the end of this year.
    The numbers come as the three-runway system is poised to be commissioned around the same time, while the main terminal will be integrated with SKYCITY and Tung Chung through an autonomous transport system poised to start in 2028.
    But despite the encouraging figures, it isn't all plain sailing. Speaking to local media, the authority's acting CEO Vivian Cheung warned that Russian airspace restrictions remained a hindrance, as Western carriers are banned from flying over Russia owing to sanctions over the invasion of Ukraine, leading to greater fuel costs.
    How well is the airport's recovery proceeding? Is Hong Kong keeping up with the competition? How much of an impact do geopolitical conflicts have? We'll talk to the experts.
    After 9:45, we speak to a doctor who just came back from Gaza.

    Presenters:Jim Gould and Ada Wong

    On Tuesday’s Backchat, we’re talking about tourism and travel, with many people on the move during the long Easter weekend and with the Ching Ming Festival coming up on Thursday.

    Hong Kong has been aiming to boost spending and attract greater numbers of visitors with a series of “mega events”. The city was expected to see 11 million trips back and forth across the border and welcome another 100,000 visitors on 20 cruise ships by the end of the month.
    What are the implications for the tourism industry and related sectors? How far have the government’s promotional efforts paid off? Let us know what you think.

    After 9:45, we find out more about a new mobile application designed to enhance emotional cognition in children in the autism spectrum.
