The service set to operate out of Gatwick's South terminal, will complement Cathay's five-times daily service from London Heathrow for a total of 39 flights weekly between the two cities.
Cathay Pacific’s general manager Europe, Neil Glenn said: “Cathay Pacific has been flying between London and Hong Kong for 35 years and our commitment to the UK market remains strong.
“We are delighted to launch a non-stop service from Gatwick to Hong Kong, using our new state-of-the-art A350 aircraft, which will help meet increasing demand for both business and leisure travel between the Asia Pacific region and the UK.”
He also added: “These additional flights between London and Hong Kong will provide our passengers with greater choice and flexibility and, at the same time, continue to boost Hong Kong’s standing as an international aviation hub.”
The new non-stop service between Gatwick and Hong Kong is subject to government approval.
