Offering customers flying Economy greater choice and flexibility

Cathay Pacific understands each of its customers’ journeys are different from each other. Hence, the airline has redesigned its Economy fares giving customers the choice and flexibility to choose what suits them when booking their flights. The Light, Essential and Flex fares are tailored to meet customers’ needs. Each fare offers customers increasingly more control and greater benefits, from enhanced baggage allowances to flexible rebooking and upgrade options.

Customers can upload their documents between 48 and 12 hours before their flight to be verified ahead of time, allowing them to have a seamless and hassle-free travel experience.

The airline also launched the Fly (worry) Free programme, allowing travellers greater flexibility in their bookings with the option to make unlimited ticket changes, including changes to travel dates as well as destination, until 31 December 2022. No fees will be charged for changes; however, any tax or fare differences may apply.
