Cathay Pacific Cargo Launches Weekly Service to Riyadh

Cathay Pacific Cargo is launching a new scheduled freighter service between Hong Kong and Riyadh (RUH) starting 5 January 2021.

The airline has seen a growing demand for air cargo flights between Saudi Arabia and Hong Kong (HKG), a leading cargo and logistics hub in Asia.

These new flights will meet the strong demand for shipments of e-commerce and other general cargo such as garments, providing customers with reliable, efficient and direct air cargo services.

The inaugural flight on 5 January saw Cathay Pacific Cargo operate the service using its Boeing B747-400 ERF aircraft.

Flights will operate once per week every Tuesday with a stopover in Dubai (DWC) on the return flight to Hong Kong.
