Cathay Pacific to operate Hong Kong-Kathmandu flight



KATHMANDU: Cathay Pacific Airlines is operating direct flights from Hong Kong and Kathmandu from October 1.

The operation will start after a hiatus of three years.

The flight between the two destinations was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic three years ago.

Hong Kong’s flag carrier has sent a letter to the concerned authority of Nepal to operate the direct flight from October 1, according to Premnath Thakur, General Manager at the Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA).

Currently, Nepal Airlines has been conducting regular flights between Kathmandu and Hong Kong and vice-versa.

The Cathay Pacific has planned to conduct one flight a week (Saturday) to begin with, said GM Thakur.
