Statement from Cathay Pacific Airways

25 Jun 2015

In response to the decision announced today by the Air Transport Licensing Authority (ATLA), Cathay Pacific Director Corporate Affairs James Tong said: "It is the right decision for Hong Kong. As we said during the ATLA hearings, any airline with its principal place of business not in Hong Kong does not comply with Article 134 of the Basic Law. The ATLA decision ensures that important Hong Kong economic assets, its air traffic rights, are used for the benefit of the people and the economy of Hong Kong."
