DAVAO CITY -- Expecting a large volume of vacationers this summer season, Cathay Dragon has added two more flights to service Davao-Hong Kong routes starting on Tuesday, April 4.

Camille Rosales, Cathay local sales executive, said the additional two flights will only be good until the end of the season on May 4.

During the Kapehan sa Dabaw on Monday here, Rosales told reporters that the additional flights will accommodate more travelers between Davao and Hong Kong and onwards to other destinations.

Cathay Dragon, a Hong Kong flag carrier, currently flies the Davao-Hong Kong route at four-times-weekly since October last year. It flies on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays with Airbus A320 aircraft.

Since then, Rosales said, the load factor has been doing well and with summer season she is expecting an increasing demand.

“Our target is really 100 percent load factor,” she added.

Davao City is the fourth destination of Cathay Dragon which also operates flights to Manila, Cebu, and Clark.

Cathay Dragon is a Hong Kong-based international airline and a member of the Cathay Pacific Group. The airline's network covers 53 destinations across the Asia-Pacific region, including 23 in mainland China. (PNA)
