About
Cathay Pacific flight tracking
Cathay Pacific operates from Hong Kong, connecting Asia to Europe, North America, and Australia. London to Hong Kong is 11-12 hours direct, with overnight departures landing early morning Hong Kong time.
Hong Kong airport is efficient, with clear signage and fast immigration for transit passengers. If someone's connecting through HKG to Australia or elsewhere in Asia, typical transit time is 1-2 hours.
For UK families tracking relatives heading to Hong Kong or beyond, the timezone difference (7-8 hours ahead of UK) means landing typically happens overnight UK time.
Cathay also operates Cathay Dragon for regional Asian flights, though most are now merged under the CX code.
