Cathay Pacific Targets 10 New Ultra-Long-Haul Routes with 17-Hour Flights
Cathay Pacific is planning a significant expansion of its ultra-long-haul network, with a target launch period starting in 2026. The airline has identified ten potential new non-stop routes, many of which would exceed 17 hours of flight time. These destinations are primarily in North America and Europe, and include cities such as Miami, Chicago, and Mexico City. This strategic growth is linked to the future delivery of new long-range aircraft, including the Boeing 777-9 and additional Airbus A350-1000s. The expansion aims to solidify Hong Kong's position as a premier global aviation hub.
