During this period, the airline experienced strong demand on many of its routes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have achieved 50% of our pre-Covid passenger travel capacity and are on track to reach 70% by the end of the year. Furthermore, our cargo capacity is projected to reach 85% of pre-Covid levels by the close of 2023,\u201d Raicar stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cathay Pacific informed Business Report that with the reinstatement of its flights to Hong Kong, South African passengers can now access Hong Kong and various destinations such as Shanghai, Beijing, Xiamen, Hangzhou, Guangzhou, and more via Hong Kong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, as the demand for corporate and leisure travel to Southeast Asian regions returns to pre-pandemic levels, the revival of flights to Hong Kong strengthens the convenience of connecting to the Greater Bay Area through their intermodal transport services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay tuned with us.
