Cathay Pacific announces nonstop Zurich flights

CATHAY Pacific Airways is growing its European network with a new nonstop flight from Hong Kong to Zurich that will take off next year.

The daily service will be launched on March 29, 2015 with a Boeing 777-300ER aircraft deployed on the route. Four classes will be offered – first class, business class, premium economy and longhaul economy class seats.

Flights depart Hong Kong at 00.15 to touch down in Zurich at 06.55, while return flights leave Zurich at 13.30 and will arrive in Hong Kong at 06.45 the next day.

Cathay Pacific chief executive, Ivan Chu, said: “Zurich and Hong Kong are two of the world’s leading financial centres, where people appreciate high standards of service, and we are seeing considerable demand for a quality travel experience, especially on longhaul routes.

“Cathay Pacific already has a significant presence in Europe and this new destination will help meet demand for both business and leisure travel between Switzerland and Hong Kong. The launch of Zurich, together with the recently announced introduction of flights to Manchester, highlights our ongoing commitment to helping strengthen Hong Kong’s position as one of the world’s great international aviation hubs.”

Tickets for Cathay Pacific’s Hong Kong-Zurich service are now available for purchase.
