SAN FRANCISCO — Cathay Pacific is redesigning its Economy fares to give passengers greater choice and flexibility when booking flights.

Each fare offers increasingly more control and greater benefits, from enhanced baggage allowances to flexible rebooking and upgrade options, says the airline.

LIGHT: Cathay Pacific’s Light fares offer great value with confirmed travel plans, says the carrier. One piece of checked-in luggage is included and passengers have the option to pay for additional luggage and other benefits like seat pre-selection after their booking is made.

ESSENTIAL: Cathay says its Essential fares ‘offer the perfect balance of everything customers need’, such as an extra piece of luggage, seat pre-selection and the option to upgrade using Asia Miles.

FLEX: Flex fares give passengers maximum flexibility, with full control over their travel plans as and when changes are needed.

Says Chris van den Hooven, Senior Vice-President, Americas, Cathay Pacific Airways: “Cathay Pacific is thrilled to launch our new Light, Essential, and Flex fares in the Americas. With more fare options, our customers now have greater flexibility and choice to book a customized itinerary that suits their budget and lifestyle.”
