Cathay Pacific plans to fly to Moscow
Cathay Pacific plans to fly to Moscow
10 February 2010
Cathay Pacific Airways today announced plans to fly to Moscow, capital of the Russian Federation. The airline is in the process of applying to the relevant authorities and looks forward to finalising flight details as soon as the regulatory approvals are in place.
Cathay Pacific Chief Executive Tony Tyler said: “Moscow has been on our radar screen for some time now. This planned addition to our network underlines Cathay Pacific’s commitment to develop new markets, and our ongoing work to strengthen Hong Kong as one of the world’s leading international aviation hubs.
“We expect Moscow will develop quickly as a prime destination for business and leisure travellers from this part of the world.
“Our strong network will enable us to offer great connections for travellers from Moscow through the Hong Kong hub to our Southeast Asian destinations and to Mainland China with our sister airline Dragonair.
“Travel demand between the two cities is showing substantial growth thanks in no small part to the visa-free access enjoyed by passport holders of the HKSAR and the Russian Federation.”
Subject to regulatory approval, Cathay Pacific plans to operate a thrice-weekly service to Moscow with Airbus A340-300 aircraft in a two-class configuration featuring Cathay Pacific’s acclaimed long-haul Business Class product. The intended new service is planned to begin this summer.
Cathay Pacific currently has a code share arrangement with the Russian national carrier Aeroflot on the Hong Kong-Moscow route.

MAN shuttle was linked to Moscow before, it would be nice to see it back.
Even better to see the Colombians replaced by a few Russians down the Wanch!

Expanding the route network? So, not that I'm that keen either, but why aren't we serving the ever increasing Chinese population in Africa and tapping into that market? Nigeria, Angola, and even Zambia? Kenya Airways, Ethiopian and Lufthansa are making a killing here already even though having to go via Nairobi, Addis Ababa and Frankfurt.... No, lets just add a 17th daily flight to LA and demonstrate our huge capacity for imagination and lateral thought!
I guess they couldn't come up with a new CTWOPlusPlusPlusPlus brief to cope with all the Threatening Threats......
