The Cathay Group has achieved a significant milestone, now operating flights to 100 global destinations as of June this year. This expansion underscores the airline's growth and solidifies its status as a prominent international carrier with a broad global reach.

Mable Chan, Secretary for Transport and Logistics, remarked: "As Cathay hits the magic 100, so too does Hong Kong International Airport and Hong Kong as an international aviation hub. With the Three-Runway System already commissioned late last year, we have the enormous capacity to grow."

Cathay Pacific, along with its low-cost subsidiary HK Express, plans to add 18 new destinations in 2025. This expansion will increase seat capacity and connectivity for leisure and business travelers.
