Cathay Pacific has initiated its first non-stop flights from Hong Kong to Munich, enhancing its European network. This development follows the recent introduction of seasonal flights to Rome on June 5 and precedes the airline's planned return to Brussels on August 3.

The Cathay Group, which includes low-cost carrier HK Express, is expanding its global reach, now serving 100 passenger destinations worldwide. In 2025, they plan to add a total of 18 new destinations to their network. Recent launches include Cathay Pacific's services to Rome and Munich, as well as HK Express flights to Cheongju and Daegu, with Miyako (Shimojishima) scheduled for next week.

Lavinia Lau, Cathay Chief Customer and Commercial Officer, expressed satisfaction with the new Munich route: “We are very pleased to welcome Munich into our global network for the first time, offering customers a direct connection between Hong Kong and a key economic, manufacturing and transportation hub in Europe. Customers can explore Munich’s diverse blend of culture, art and innovation or connect to a wide range of onward destinations in Europe through our codeshare partners."

She added that travelers flying to Hong Kong can benefit from Cathay Group's extensive network: “Meanwhile, customers travelling to Hong Kong can connect to the Cathay Group’s extensive passenger network via our home hub, which now covers 100 destinations worldwide. This global connectivity reinforces Hong Kong’s status as a leading international aviation hub and a premier gateway linking the Chinese Mainland and the world. As we grow and expand, we remain focused on adding more flights and destinations for our customers and providing them with a seamless journey.”

The new Hong Kong-Munich service uses Airbus A350-900 aircraft featuring fully flat beds in Business class along with spacious seating options in Premium Economy and Economy cabins. Flights operate four times weekly on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

With additional services like those planned for Brussels in August, Cathay Pacific aims to run nearly 100 return flights per week across 12 European cities during this summer's peak travel season. These cities include Amsterdam, Barcelona, Brussels, Frankfurt, London Heathrow, Madrid, Manchester, Milan, Munich, Paris, Rome, and Zurich.

Furthermore, Cathay Cargo intends to maintain seven freighter flights weekly between Europe and Hong Kong throughout summer 2025.
