Cathay Pacific offers passengers new environmentally friendly travel kits

Cathay Pacific Airways unveiled its latest range of travel kits for passengers featuring an exclusive design by renowned French fashion brand agnès b and will also contain, for the first time, biodegradable products.

From June onwards, the airline’s female passengers travelling in Business Class will receive the new travel kit in either black or light blue, with polka dot printing by agnès b. The new Business Class travel kit for male passengers will be on board from July this year. Also designed by agnès b, the male travel kits come in either grey or dark blue with agnès b’s stylish lizard print. The agnès b. logo is also incorporated into an array of accessories to create uniformity and uniqueness, and to enhance the total value of the kit.

The disposable toothbrush (and shoehorn for male passengers) in these kits is made mainly from corn starch and cellulose, which is biodegradable, recyclable and uses less resources in its production.

The kits are also packed with skincare products specially selected from Murad – one of the USA’s foremost authorities on skincare, and where the founder – Dr Howard Murad – has devoted his life to making healthy skin attainable for everyone. The Murad skincare products in the new travel kits have been specially selected to protect passengers’ skin from in-flight moisture loss and travel stress.

Cathay Pacific Head of Product Alex McGowan said: “Cathay Pacific is a socially and environmentally responsible company. We seek to minimize our impact on the environment wherever we can. We are constantly working on opportunities to offer more sustainable products inflight."

Amenities include dental set, socks, eyeshades and earplugs. Male passengers will also receive a shoe horn, while female passengers will receive cotton pads.
