Cathay PacificThe Cathay Group is offering customers even greater choice when travelling between Hong Kong and the Chinese Mainland this summer with an enhanced schedule providing close to 300 return flights per week during the peak period. These increased flight frequencies not only strengthen Cathay’s direct services between Hong Kong and the Chinese Mainland, but also cater for the growing two-way travel demand between the Chinese Mainland and the global market, offering customers a more efficient and flexible travel experience.
Cathay Chief Customer and Commercial Officer Lavinia Lau said: “We are delighted to be expanding our flight schedule in the Chinese Mainland this summer with services to 20 passenger destinations and increased frequencies on many of our popular routes. With our unique position of having deep roots in Hong Kong, being proudly part of China, and connecting the world, we are committed to providing a seamless travel experience for our customers whether they are flying to, from or via our home hub.”
