Cathay Pacific has announced the addition of a fourth weekly flight from Hong Kong to Riyadh, enhancing its service on this route. The new flight will operate during the International Air Transport Association (IATA) summer season, with departures from Hong Kong on Fridays, complementing existing flights on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
The additional service will utilize an Airbus A350-900 aircraft, consistent with Cathay Pacific's current operations between these two cities. The aircraft is configured to accommodate 280 passengers across business, premium economy, and economy classes.
According to Cirium’s Diio Mi airline planning tool, Cathay Pacific remains the sole airline offering direct flights between Hong Kong and Riyadh. The carrier resumed this route in November 2024 after a hiatus since February 2017. During that period, it had used an Airbus A330-300 for four weekly flights.
