Cathay Pacific Cargo to order 500 preighters to meet demand

Cathay Pacific Cargo has announced that the carrier is back to full schedule. Tom Owen, Director said in a statement, “I am pleased to report that steadily emerging from what has been a challenging time for the business. We have always tried to put as much cargo capacity as we can into the market, but it is an exciting time for us as we start to rebuild our overall network and schedule. The biggest news of the month is resumption of our full freighter schedule. We will be operating between 90 and 100 freighters each week. We are planning to operate 500 cargo-only-passenger flights a month around the region. They will provide strong lift over the next few months to feed our reactivated long-haul freighter services.”
