Cathay Pacific Airways, the Hong Kong-based international airline which serves 48 destinations on five continents and employs over 14,000 people is once again back in the fl.
Cargo is now highly important to Cathay's bottom line, and will almost certainly grow in light of China's likely entry into the WTO, says Tyler.
We think it would be only fair if the US government allowed Cathay Pacific, or Singapore Airlines, or anyone else, to compete on routes like San Francisco-Denver, the way that they are asking the U.S. -based airlines be allowed to compete on routes like Hong Kong to Singapore.
