[photopress:_CathayPacific_1.jpg,full,alignleft]Cathay Pacific Airways has added Beijing to its freighter network starting November 15. The airline gained approval from the Chinese Government to launch a new twice-weekly service.
The new service will give a further boost to Hong Kong’s position as a leading freight and logistics hub and gateway to China. Cathay will use a Boeing 747-200 freighter aircraft for the service operating every Wednesday and Thursday from Hong Kong.
Cathay Pacific already operates a freighter service to and from Shanghai, currently with 12 flights a week.
