Cathay Pacific will launch a new route from Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) to Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW), the airline said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The Hong Kong-based airline will fly between its home hub and DFW beginning April 24, 2025, with four flights in each direction per week.<\/p>\n

Flight CX897 will depart from DFW at 11:55 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, arriving in Hong Kong at 5:05 a.m. two days later (since the flight crosses the international date line). Flights to Dallas \u2014 CX898 \u2014 will leave from Hong Kong at 4:05 p.m. also on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, arriving at 5:55 p.m. on the same day.<\/p>\n

Cathay will operate the route with its flagship Airbus A350-1000 jet. The plane features 46 lie-flat business-class seats in a reverse herringbone configuration. While it doesn’t feature the airline’s new Aria business-class suite \u2014 that’s being rolled out on the Boeing 777-300ER<\/a> and, eventually, the 777-9<\/a> \u2014 it’s nevertheless a comfortable option<\/a> and one of the better executions of this type of configuration.<\/p>\n

The planes also feature 32 premium economy seats and 256 seats in the regular economy cabin.<\/p>\n

Cathay is well-known for its quality on-board service, and offers connections beyond Hong Kong across much of Asia, Australia and New Zealand.<\/p>\n

The airline is a member of the Oneworld alliance<\/a>, along with American Airlines and Alaska Airlines, so the new route offers a new potential redemption opportunity<\/a> for U.S.-based travelers, whether based in DFW or connecting from another city served by a Oneworld carrier.<\/p>\n
