LONDON, December 19,
London will be brought within eight and a half days of Hong Kong after to-morrow, when the new Imperial Airways route will be opened between Hong Kong and Bangkok.
The new air line will be a branch of the main England-Australia air route, connecting with the latter at Bangkok. It is 400 miles shorter than the former Imperial Airways line to Hong Kong via Penang. The service will be maintained by liners of the Diana class.
