A major milestone for Cathay Pacific with the airline reaching 100 global passenger destinations in June.
The airline will operate more than 110 return flights per week to eight destinations in North America and close to 100 return flights per week to 12 European destinations during the peak period this summer.
In addition, with its return to Adelaide in November, Cathay Pacific will be operating close to 90 return flights per week to eight destinations in the Southwest Pacific at the peak of this winter season.
Cathay is currently undergoing its largest investment program ever, with more than $HK100 billion committed to fleet, cabin upgrades, lounges and digital services.
To commemorate reaching the 100 milestone a special event was held at Island Shangri-La, Hong Kong, attended by senior Cathay executives and Hong Kong Government officials.
“For almost 80 years, Cathay has been proudly connecting Hong Kong to the world by continuously expanding our global footprint,” said Patrick Healy, Cathay Group Chair.
“In the past two years alone, we have added 30 new passenger destinations, including 18 new destinations this year alone and still counting.
“That rate of network expansion is at an unprecedented level for Cathay, and that has allowed us to reach this milestone of 100 destinations ahead of schedule.”
