Cathay Pacific

Hong Kong is partially lifting border restrictions that had grounded most of Cathay’s flights.

A surge in COVID-19 cases in Hong Kong and crew quarantine rules are constraining the airline’s ability to operate.

Cathay Pacific managed a return to profit for the second half (H2) of 2021, although this hard-won progress is under threat in the early months of 2022 due to stricter COVID-19 regulations in Hong Kong.

New COVID-19 crew restrictions imposed by the Hong Kong government have made it challenging for Cathay to operate.

Cathay Pacific has dramatically cut back its planned capacity in response to the latest crew quarantine requirements and flight restrictions imposed by the Hong Kong government.

The restrictions imposed by the Hong Kong government restrict the airline’s ability to operate even a limited schedule.

The tightening of regulations may help Cathay Pacific regain cashflow by opening up the mainland border and targeting the faster-recovering Chinese market.

The loan was initially offered to Cathay Pacific in 2020 to support the airline at the peak of the coronavirus crisis.

The air travel bubble (ATB) connecting Singapore (SIN) and Hong Kong (HKG) will finally open on May 26, nearly six months after the initial launch was postponed after cases surged in the Chinese special administrative region.

The U.S. Transportation Department (DOT) is now requiring Hong Kong-based Cathay Pacific to file its U.S. flight schedules with the agency so it can determine if the company’s operations are creating adverse conditions.

Cathay Pacific is engaged in talks with the Hong Kong government to remove onerous crew quarantine requirements that have severely disrupted the carrier’s operations.

Frankfurt, Melbourne, San Francisco and Vancouver are among the routes being canceled.

Cathay Pacific will suspend a range of routes because of strict new quarantine rules for crew, dealing a further blow to a network already severely diminished by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cathay Pacific has announced a new convertible bond issue that will raise HK$6.7 billion ($870 million), giving it an additional financial buffer as the business environment becomes even more challenging.
