Hong Kong-based Cathay Pacific has expanded its network of services to destinations in the US for summer 2025 by adding new direct flights between Hong Kong and Dallas, Texas. The addition of Dallas to its network is a strategic move for the carrier, which has made the further strengthening of connectivity between Hong Kong, the Chinese Mainland, and North America a key part of its expansion plans for 2025.<\/p>\n

The new flights, the first of which departed from Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) on April 24, 2025, will be operated by the carrier\u2019s fleet of Airbus A350-1000 widebodies and will operate four times weekly in each direction. The inaugural flight touched down at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport on the same date at 17:09 local time, having taken 13 hours and 47 minutes to fly the 8,170-mile (13,072 km) eastbound leg from Hong Kong.<\/p>\n

To mark the occasion of the arrival of the first of the new flights, Cathay Pacific\u2019s \u00a0Director of Customer Travel, Erica Peng, and Airport Authority Hong Kong Executive Director of Airport Operations Steven Yiu Siu-chung gathered at Hong Kong Airport to celebrate the new service\u2019s launch.<\/p>\n
