About Cathay Pacific
Cathay Pacific is Hong Kong's flag carrier and a pillar of the oneworld alliance, operating 90+ long-haul and regional routes from Hong Kong International Airport — a premier transit gateway at the heart of Asia-Pacific that connects travellers seamlessly between Europe, the Americas, Australasia, and mainland China. The airline's business class and The Retreat first-class suite have repeatedly won top honours for cabin design and service quality, while its premium economy product offers excellent value on long transatlantic and transpacific sectors. Cathay's regional subsidiary HK Express extends its low-cost reach across 35+ short-haul Asian destinations, and its Marco Polo Club tier programme together with Asia Miles provides strong earn-and-burn flexibility throughout the oneworld network. Substantial orders for Boeing 777Xs and Airbus A330-900neos underpin Cathay's long-term capacity growth across its core long-haul and medium-haul markets.
