HK is one of my fave destinations!! If I had my EASA license, i would apply for CX and happily move there! I've looked on flyzed recently, seems most of the time the flights are red. So I guess they are doing good.

I've flown them twice, and DragonAir once. Even though we don't have an agreement with DragonAir, they (CX) put me on one of their flights from PEK to HKG last year when the CX flight cancelled. Excellent flights, and good service too.
