Cathay Pacific is having trouble remaining a viable airline with just a trickle of passenger business due to the coronavirus. It’s taking drastic measures.
Warm, dry weather isn’t just easier on the body, it’s nice for airplanes with metal frames and electronics that can deteriorate when there is too much moisture.

Cathay Pacific saw double-digit drops in both tonnes of cargo carried and cargo and mail revenue freight tonne kilometres.
