Hong Kong’s Cathay Pacific to cut fuel surcharges again as costs ease

Cathay Pacific Airways, Hong Kong's flag carrier, will reduce fuel surcharges on most passenger flights for the second time in under two months. These revised rates will be effective from July 1, reflecting a decrease in fuel costs that had risen due to the Middle East war. Passengers on long-haul flights from Hong Kong to North America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the Southwest Pacific will see their surcharges drop by 14.5% to HK$1,164 per sector. Similar percentage reductions will apply to flights to South and Southeast Asia, with surcharges falling to HK$541, and other routes will see a decrease to HK$290.
