Cathay Pacific Cargo lands in Riyadh
Cathay Pacific Cargo has launched a new scheduled freighter service between Hong Kong and Riyadh. Starting yesterday, 5 January 2021, B747-400ERF flights will operate once per week with a stopover in Dubai (DWC) on the return flight to Hong Kong.
Before linking the Saudi capital, Cathay Pacific Cargo recently introduced a number of scheduled and charter services to meet the air cargo needs of its customers.
On 16 December 2020, the airline launched a seasonal cargo service between Hong Kong and Hobart in Australia, providing an important airfreight lane for the export of fresh produce from Hobart to various parts of Asia via Hong Kong.
Moreover, in September last year, the airline launched a temporary service to Pittsburgh in the USA to serve the seasonal upsurge in demand. (ah)
