Cathay Pacific and Air New Zealand are thrilled to celebrate a decade of partnership, connecting two vibrant destinations and providing unforgettable travel experiences between New Zealand and Hong Kong.

Since the establishment of the alliance in 2013, seamless connectivity has been at the heart of the collaboration, making it easier for travellers to explore the best of New Zealand and Hong Kong.

The airlines currently operate 11 flights to Hong Kong per week, which will be increasing to 16 services between December and February. Throughout its ten years in partnership, the airlines have carried more than three million customers between New Zealand and Hong Kong.

The decade-long alliance between the carriers gives customers more choice with frequent services, competitive fares, reciprocal frequent flyer benefits, and enhanced connectivity from both carrier networks.

The partnership also ensures that customers have access to the award-winning services of both airlines. From chef-designed menus to extensive entertainment options, and impeccable service, passengers can expect nothing less than excellence throughout their journey.

Cathay Pacific Regional General Manager Frosti Lau says the 10-year alliance is a testament to the power of collaboration.

"This demonstrates how two industry-leading airlines can join forces to create an exceptional travel experience. We are immensely proud of what we have achieved together, and we look forward to further enhancing our partnership in the years to come."

Air New Zealand Chief Transformation and Alliances Officer Mike Williams says the decade of partnership showcases the strong relations between the two airlines.

“This milestone demonstrates the enduring relationship between Cathay Pacific and Air New Zealand. We have been privileged to work together to bring our passengers an unmatched level of service and connectivity. As we celebrate ten incredible years, we are excited about the future and the new possibilities that lie ahead."

Cathay Pacific and Air New Zealand look forward to working together for years to come.
