No short-term injection of long-haul cargo services


Cathay Pacific Cargo will continue to implement very substantial reductions to its long-haul capacity in the first quarter of 2022, on account of the latest aircrew quarantine measures imposed by the government of the Hong Kong SAR, decreed in view of rising cases of infection with the omicron variant of Covid-19 around the world.

There will thus be no full-freighter services at all to Europe and the southwestern Pacific region until the end of March, for example. Regional cargo-only passenger flights (COP) will operate as scheduled in the first quarter of the year, while COP services to the Americas will remain suspended in January, and only a skeleton COP schedule to Europe and the southwestern Pacific region will be operated.

The carrier affirmed that it is “assessing options to increase long-haul COP capacities in February. Any improvement is likely to be limited, however." (ah)
