Cathay Pacific cuts flights between Hong Kong and Paris over Europe strikes
The airline on Monday advised passengers booked for flight CX278 from Paris to Hong Kong to make “alternative arrangements” and postpone non-essential travel to Paris.
Cathay Pacific has cut half of its scheduled flights to and from Paris in the next three days because of planned industrial action by air traffic control officers in the French capital.
The airline on Monday advised passengers booked for flight CX278 from Paris to Hong Kong to make “alternative arrangements” through the “Manage My Booking” system on the airline’s website.
Flight CX261 from Hong Kong International Airport to Paris Charles de Gaulle will also be cancelled, the airline said.
The airline said it would waive re-booking and re-routing charges for all tickets issued worldwide that have been confirmed from Tuesday to Thursday. Only flights CX279 (Hong Kong-Paris) and CX260 (Paris-Hong Kong) will continue to operate within the period.
“There has been no impact on our daily airport operations at this time,” the Hong Kong Airport Authority said on Monday.
