Effective May 2011 Cathay Pacific Airways will be adding a 4th daily flight between HKG and JFK. The new flight, CX845/856, will run on a late evening schedule:
CX846 HKG1830 – 2225JFK 77W D
CX845 JFK0120 – 0515+1HKG 77W D
Cathay Pacific currently has two daily nonstop flights and one daily flight via YVR.

Amazing. There is really that much traffic between HK and NY? Wonder if CX will stop the YVR/JFK leg in the future.

I have flown Cathay's. JFK - HKG route six times, twice with YVR stop. ALL OF MY FLIGHTS in both directions had at least 90% loads. With Cathay's excellent service, 15+ hour non stop has never been bad experience. Lastly, Cathay always have marketed
aggressively with lots of sale on these flights.
They will do great with 4/day.

I second that, Cathay's Service is great. 16 hours never went by so fast.

16 hours on a plane, Jesus H. Cristo:eek:
I think I would go bananas after that much time locked in a metal cylinder

You know, It was the one(roundtrip) and only time i've done it and i thought it was going to be crazy long, but with the entertainment, sleeping, being able to hang out in the galley for a couple hours it was really not bad. After the first 6 hours, you say to yourself, another 10 to go.lol

My longest flight ever was to Hawaii on Delta MD-11 which was I think 13 hours... it was really not bad at all... three two hour movies and a lot of sleeping... lucky for us we had the seats right by the door and had tons of room to lay out.
