Cathay Pacific Airways is adding a fifth daily return flight between its Hong Kong hub and London Heathrow, scheduled to debut on June 27.
In addition to the 35 frequencies a week to London, Cathay Pacific offers 25 flights a week to New York City and 17 to Los Angeles. Both routes are planned to gain additional frequencies in 2013.
The upcoming fifth London Heathrow frequency will be operated with a Boeing 777-300ER aircraft.
In another development, Cathay Pacific has reopened the First Class Lounge in The Wing, the airline’s flagship lounge at Hong Kong International Airport, following an extensive renovation.
Business Class lounge renovations were completed last year,
The Wing’s First Class Lounge is open to First Class passengers, Diamond Marco Polo Club members and Emerald oneworld members.
Opening hours are from 5:30am until the last departure.
