Japan Airlines and Cathay Pacific Expand Code Share Agreement

Japan Airlines and Cathay Pacific Airways (CX) have agreed to expand their Japan-Hong Kong code share programme to include a daily round trip flight on the Fukuoka-Hong Kong route.

The new code share flight will be operated by Cathay Pacific aircraft and crews and the first flight out of Fukuoka will be on 3 October 2005. The flight is routed via Taipei but JAL passengers, by using this code share flight, can travel only between Fukuoka and Hong Kong.

Fukuoka-Hong Kong will be the third code share route for JAL and Cathay Pacific between Japan and Hong Kong. Since Spring 1999 the two carriers have operated daily code share flights on routes between Nagoya and Hong Kong and Osaka’s Kansai International Airport and Hong Kong.

Flight inauguration date: October 3, 2005
Reservations availability from: September 20, 2005
