The report also points at the progress made in reducing carbon footprint, along with measures taken to tackle operational sustainability matters.  

One of the key focal points for Cathay Pacific, as a leading airline, is to embrace its responsibility to lead the charge towards sustainable aviation and ensure future generations can experience the joy of travel. The Hong Kong based airline announced its commitment to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, becoming one of the first Asian airline’s to establish a timeline for making carbon neutrality a reality.  

Mark Sutch, regional general manager, South Asia, Middle East and Africa Cathay Pacific, said, “While we wade through the detrimental impact of the pandemic, mitigating climate charge and finding solutions for sustainable aviation has also been an imminent focus for the business. We endeavour to operate in a sustainable manner and incorporate multiple social and environment friendly practices into all aspects of our business.”
