Hong Kong-based flag carrier Cathay Pacific is preparing to mature its newly launched routes and use additional partnerships in order to reach emerging markets, the two key elements of the carrier's 2026-2035 fleet expansion efforts. The dual-brand strategy, which combines Cathay Pacific with the low-cost HK Express, targets demand from both mainland China and international markets. Management commentary has indicated that some newer routes currently remain unprofitable and could take up to 18 months to mature.
