Cathay Cargo

From its origins as a small regional freight operator established in 1946, Cathay Pacific Airways has grown to become one of the world’s leading combination cargo carriers and has helped to build Hong Kong into the world’s busiest air cargo hub. All of Cathay Pacific’s cargo operations are grouped under its Cathay Cargo unit. Cathay Cargo currently operates a fleet of 20 Boeing 747 freighters: 14 747-8Fs and six 747-400ERFs (Extended Range Freighter), across 70 destinations worldwide. We also use cargo space on the airline Group’s 200 passenger aircraft. On average, and in normal times. Cathay Cargo has developed a wide range of service options to meet the growing needs of its customers. On top of our expert general cargo handling, we offer a range of dedicated products for shipments that require special handling, including Cathay Pharma, Cathay Mail, Cathay Dangerous Goods, Cathay Fresh, Cathay Live Animal, Cathay Secure, Cathay Courier and Cathay Expert. In 2022, we introduced a suite of Priority options, offering dedicated booking tiers of priority. Priority provides greater choice and better-defined service options to customers with speed, capacity and assurance for every shipment.
