Cathay Pacific to Increase and Upgrade Flights to Manchester

Cathay Pacific will strengthen its United Kingdom connectivity with a boost in frequency to Manchester (MAN).

The airline announced its current four-times-weekly Hong Kong (HKG) to Manchester service will become a daily operation from Dec. 1, due to increases in customer demand.

From June, the airline’s Airbus A350-900 will replace the Boeing 777-300ER on all flights to Manchester, making it the second Cathay Pacific destination in the United Kingdom, after Gatwick (LGW), to receive the technologically advanced aircraft.

Paul Loo, director corporate development and IT, Cathay Pacific, said, “We have been delighted by the popularity of our Manchester route ever since its launch in December 2014 and our frequency increases are a direct result of us responding to the needs of our customers. The enhanced schedule will provide business and leisure travellers with more choice and greater flexibility in planning their trips for added convenience, while at the same time strengthening Hong Kong’s position as Asia’s leading aviation hub.”

Cathay Pacific, already the largest operator of flights between Hong Kong and the United Kingdom, will continue to grow its reach in its longest-serving long-haul market. The airline serves London Heathrow with five daily flights, while Gatwick, currently a four-times-weekly service, will become a daily service from June 1.
