(HONG KONG, 9 June 2020) – Airport Authority Hong Kong (AA) welcomes the Government’s investment in support of the recapitalisation plan of Cathay Pacific as the aviation industry continues to manage the unprecedented challenges brought by the COVID-19 pandemic. To secure the international aviation hub position of Hong Kong, it is crucial to ensure that CX as the major home-based airline maintains its competitiveness and operations.
