Cathay Pacific to launch Gatwick service
Cathay Pacific Airways will launch a new four-times-weekly service from London Gatwick in September.
Subject to government approval, flights will start on September 2.
The new service will complement the airline’s current five-times-daily service from Heathrow and will give it 39 flights a week between London and Hong Kong.
Cathay Pacific also operates a four-times-weekly service from Manchester.
Cathay Pacific will operate the new Gatwick service from the airport’s South Terminal with brand new Airbus A350-900 aircraft.
