Hong Kong’s Cathay Pacific will recommence services to Sri Lanka, operating three non-stop flights per week from Colombo to Hong Kong from 2 February 2024.
CX610 will depart Colombo at 0045 on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, and arrive in Hong Kong at 0840. The return service, CX611, will depart Hong Kong on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays at 2005 and arrive in Sri Lanka at 2330.
The resumption marks the revival of a long-standing aviation partnership between Hong Kong and Sri Lanka. For both business and leisure travellers, the flights will serve as a gateway, offering exceptional connectivity via Hong Kong to the Chinese Mainland, North America, Northeast Asia, and the Southwest Pacific.
“This is an important occasion as we announce the relaunch of flights from Colombo,” says Anand Yedery, regional head of Customer Travel and Lifestyle, South Asia, Middle East and Africa for the airline. “Cathay Pacific’s return not only signifies our commitment to our customers, but also showcases the vital role Sri Lanka plays in our network. In the past few years, we have invested in our product and inflight experience, including the dining menu, entertainment and more. We are excited to have our customers experience these service enhancements, convenient connections to key destinations worldwide such as Melbourne and Toronto, and our intermodal air-to-sea ferry options for travel into the Greater Bay Area. We look forward to welcoming Sri Lankan travellers aboard our flights and delivering a journey that exceeds their expectations.”
In addition to passenger services, Cathay continues to play a significant role in the economy by supporting local industries and connecting them to the world through its air cargo services
