Cathay Pacific to Continue Hong Kong – Singapore Capacity Upgrade
Cathay Pacific Airways will continue to operate seven non-stop flights per day between Hong Kong and Singapore, as well as an eighth daily flight via Bangkok. When the Hong Kong carrier introduced its seventh daily rotation on April 29 it had originally planned for it to operate for just two months until June 30, but it will now remain in place for the entire summer schedule. However, instead of an evening departure from Hong Kong and red-eye return, the flight will now depart in the morning, returning from Changi Airport in the afternoon.
An estimated 2,219,906 O&D passengers travelled on the route in the past year, up 30.5 per cent on the previous 12 months. Cathay Pacific is the largest operator with a 43 per cent share of the traffic, followed by Singapore Airlines (31 per cent) and then Jetstar Asia Airways and Tiger Airways with nine per cent each.
