Cached-fare history: across 10 months, Nov is the cheapest for LON → HKG. Best time to be there: Oct–Dec.
Fares bottom out in November around $437 and peak in July near $928 — a $491 spread across the 10 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 14 hours outbound, on a 7-night trip — ticketed under China Southern, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $437 for 9,623 km each way, that works out to about $23 per 1,000 km flown. That is well under the $44 that long-haul fares on this board typically run. Of the 23 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Hong Kong, this is the cheapest right now — though San Francisco is within a few dollars. It is also the cheapest of the 36 routes of similar length we watch out of London.

What is the cheapest month to fly from London to Hong Kong?
Across 10 months of cached-fare history, Nov comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Hong Kong are Oct–Dec — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book LON → Hong Kong?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 10 months of cached fares, Nov comes out lowest on this route. See /guides/what-moves-a-flight-price/ for what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from London to Hong Kong?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under China Southern. Nonstop options exist on many dates at higher prices — check the live search for your exact dates.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on September 1). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
