China: Flight cancellations affecting Cathay Pacific flights via Hong Kong International Airport through Sept. 7

Flight cancellations are affecting Cathay Pacific (CX) flights via Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) as of Sept. 3. CX has grounded its fleet of Airbus A350 following the discovery of an engine component failure requiring repairs. While the airline expects all affected aircraft to resume normal operations by Sept. 7, disruptions are likely through Sept. 7. CX has confirmed flight cancellations through Sept 5.

Lingering flight disruptions are possible after flights resume normal operations as the carrier works to clear passenger and flight backlogs.
