​The Government announced today (September 26) the establishment of the Advisory Committee on Development of International Aviation Superhub (ACDIAS) and its appointments.

     Following the commissioning of the Three-Runway System (3RS) at Hong Kong International Airport in November 2024, the Government is committed to charting the future course of the development of Hong Kong's aviation industry and further enhancing Hong Kong's status as an international aviation hub. To this end, the ACDIAS is established, in place of the existing Aviation Development and Three-Runway System Advisory Committee, to provide high-level advice on aviation policies, including directions of aviation development, implementation of the Airport City development, interfacing issues among the operation of the 3RS, Airport City development and projects in the vicinity, as well as other civil aviation matters.  

     The Secretary for Transport and Logistics, Ms Mable Chan, said, "The National 14th Five-Year Plan has affirmed Hong Kong's position as an international aviation hub. Leveraging Hong Kong's unique advantages under 'one country, two systems', and with our globally connected aviation network and world-class airport infrastructure, Hong Kong is well placed to assume a more significant role in the area of aviation, both regionally and globally. Looking ahead, we will step up our efforts in proactively unleashing the full potential of the 3RS and contributing to the high-quality development and high-level opening up of our country. We believe that the ACDIAS will provide invaluable insights and bring Hong Kong's aviation industry to new heights."

     Members of the ACDIAS come from various sectors, including aviation, business and finance, innovation and technology, logistics and transport, professions and academia, and tourism. The appointments are for a period of two years starting from October 1, 2025. The membership of the ACDIAS is as follows:
