Cathay Pacific has announced a new partnership with the Michelin-starred Cantonese restaurant Yat Tung Heen, based in Eaton HK, to enhance its inflight dining for Premium Economy and Economy class passengers. This collaboration aims to provide travelers with a taste of Hong Kong through an exclusive menu crafted by Chef Tam Tung.
Chef Tam Tung has led Yat Tung Heen since 1990, focusing on traditional Cantonese dishes that emphasize natural flavors. The new inflight menu will be available on selected flights departing from Hong Kong starting January 2025, including long-haul and regional destinations such as the Chinese Mainland, Japan, and Thailand.
Vivian Lo, Cathay's General Manager of Customer Experience and Design, expressed excitement about the partnership: "Teaming up with Yat Tung Heen...allows us to transform our inflight dining experience into something even more memorable for our customers." She noted it is Cathay Pacific's first collaboration with a Michelin-starred restaurant for these cabin classes.
