July 15, 2022

Hong Kong’s home airline will resume direct flights from Dubai to Hong Kong on 2 October.

The airline will operate three flights per week on Monday, Friday and Saturday, providing cargo customers with direct access to Hong Kong in addition to seamless connections to onward destinations including the Philippines, Indonesia, Japan, and South Korea.

Cathay Pacific area manager Middle East Vishnu Rajendran said: “Reactivating our link from the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) to Hong Kong is extremely important to us as the market remains a priority.”

Cathay Pacific will deploy its Boeing 777-300 on its Dubai–Hong Kong route, catering to the increased cargo demand as well as passenger traffic.
