Cathay Pacific to increase summer service to Toronto

Cathay Pacific has announced that is will increase the frequency of its summer service to Toronto by adding four weekly flights commencing 24 Jun. 2017.

Cathay Pacific, which began flights to Toronto in June 1994, will now operate a twice-daily non-stop service from Hong Kong to Toronto. Its additional flights will be operated by Boeing 777-300ER aircraft.

Cathay Pacific Director Corporate Development & IT Paul Loo commented, “Toronto is a growing destination for us, and with summer being a popular period for families to spend important time together, we are delighted to be able to offer our customers with more options and flexibility through these additional services. Cathay Pacific is wholly committed to the Canadian market and we are continually looking at ways in which we can increase our reach within the country.”

The extra four services will continue until Sept. 4, and are to depart from Hong Kong at 10:35, arriving in Toronto at 13:55 local time the same day. Return flights will depart Toronto later in the afternoon, arriving in Hong Kong the following evening.

Cathay Pacific also currently flies twice-daily flights to Vancouver from its Hong Kong hub, but its service will be increased to 17 flights a week from Mar. 28. The airline also recently announced a codeshare agreement with Air Canada, allowing its passengers to book domestic flights on Canada’s national carrier to major cities across the country.
