Seattle: With India projected to become the third largest aviation
market in the world by the end of the decade, Hong Kong-based Cathay
Pacific Airways have started examining traffic potential on routes
beyond the six metropolitan cities of Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata,
Bengaluru and Hyderabad to add new points of calls and launch new
services once fresh bilateral rights are made available.
James Tong, director, corporate affairs, Cathay Pacific Airways, “India is among our top 10 markets. It is a big expanding market and traffic from India to Hong Kong is growing in double-digits. I expect the country to move up in our pecking order in the coming years.” Over half the traffic that Cathay Pacific flies out of India currently travels onwards to destinations in North America and Australia.
Cathay Pacific operates 48 weekly departures from six metros in India to Hong Kong. The airline has exhausted the allotted bilateral air traffic rights. When more seat entitlements are made available, the airline would launch flights to more destinations in the country.
