Cathay Pacific Airways adding 2,100 more seats a week to Hong Kong soon

Cathay Pacific Airways launches a third nonstop flight to Hong Kong from New York’s JFK International Airport this coming Monday. The new flight will operate on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays starting March 28. Return service from Hong Kong will operate on Sundays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Both flights will go daily in early May.

At that time, Cathay Pacific will operate three daily nonstop flights from New York JFK to Hong Kong plus an additional daily service from the airport to Vancouver, Canada, with continuing service to Hong Kong. The new daily flight will add 2,100 more seats a week to Asia’s financial capital.

“Convenience is critical to long-haul travelers just as it is in the domestic market,” said Eric Odone, Cathay Pacific’s vice president, sales and marketing. “With four flights in the near future, travelers will find an even broader array of departure times to choose from and an even wider selection of connecting opportunities via Hong Kong to other destinations throughout Asia, including mainland China.”

Cathay Pacific will operate the new flights using the Boeing 777-300ER aircraft with seating currently for six first class, 57 business class and 238 economy class passengers. The airline’s new business class, an enhancement of its already popular lie-flat seats, will be progressively introduced on the route.
