Cathay Pacific expands their operations in India

Cathay Pacific has announced that they are expanding their operations in the Indian market. The company is expanding its cargo operations from India and is adding Chennai to its network besides Delhi and Mumbai.

Cathay believes India is one of the fastest growing cargo markets and it can benefit from being a major player in this segment. They would be launching direct freighter flights between Hong Kong and Chennai from next month and are already operating three cargo flights each week from Delhi and Mumbai.

They would be adding more routes in the near future as they add on newer planes into their fleet. Cathay is also planning to open up a new office at Jalandhar on Wednesday to cater to the needs of growing number of passengers from Punjab.

Cathay Pacific General Manager (Middle East, India and Africa) Tom Wright said in a statement that the company is already providing a “value for money” to consumers from India and are not looking at providing promotional fares or packages for the Indian traveler at the moment.
