香港国际机场管理局行政总裁张凯怡表示，尽管伊朗冲突导致航班取消，该机场今年营收预计增长高达10%。她旨在将该机场定位为中东的替代航空枢纽。机场预计今年乘客量将达7000万人次，高于去年的6100万人次。
香港国际机场管理局行政总裁张凯怡在周四接受《南华早报》采访时表示，尽管中东伊朗冲突导致部分航班取消，包括国泰航空的航班，但这些航班是旅客需求较低的。她强调，机场当局正努力吸引航空公司来港开辟新航线。
张凯怡在新加坡游艇节场边表示：“一些飞机可能无法在中东停靠或经停，它们可能选择其他地方，而香港可以成为它们启动航班的绝佳起点。”她补充道：“这是我们未来几年将努力的方向。当然，希望战争尽快结束，油价回落，但即使在当前情况下，我们也在探索其他方案。”
机场预计今年乘客量将从去年的约6100万人次增至7000万人次。张凯怡的目标是将香港机场打造为中东冲突下的替代枢纽，以抓住潜在机会。
