CATHAY
PACIFIC RELEASES DECEMBER TRAFFIC FIGURES
Cathay
Pacific Airways carried more than one million passengers in December -
the highest in five months - ending 2000 on a strong note. This
increased the total number of passengers carried by the airline during
2000 to 11.9 million, the highest number in its history. In 1999, the
airline carried 10.5 million.
In
December Cathay Pacific also transported 65,203 tonnes of cargo and
mail. This was down slightly from the 72,266 tonnes carried in
November, reflecting the general slowdown typical of the Christmas
period. For 2000 as a whole, the airline carried 769,075 tonnes of
cargo, also a record high.
Cathay
Pacific’s General Manager Network Revenue Ian Shiu said: “2000 was
a highly successful year for Cathay Pacific both in terms of passenger
and cargo operations. The record result in both areas was due to the
growth in demand around our network and the hard work of all of our
staff.”
