The airline is still awaiting approval, having applied for an air operator’s certificate (AOC) with Hong Kong’s Civil Aviation Department in julio 2020. As of enero 2021, Greater Bay Airlines Company Limited has yet to take to the skies, although hopes to begin operations later in 2021.

Greater Bay Airlines is being established by Bill Wong Cho-bau, an entrepreneur based in Hong Kong who is also the founder and chairman behind Donghai Airlines, another airline which primarily operates domestically within China, though it also flies to a few other countries in Asia.
