Dragonair

Dragonair was a subsidiary of Cathay Pacific, a founding member of the oneworld alliance. Dragonair was rebranded as Cathay Dragon in 2016 and subsequently ceased operations in October 2020 as part of Cathay Pacific Group's restructuring during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dragonair operated from Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) as its sole base. The airline served regional destinations across mainland China, Southeast Asia, and Northeast Asia that complemented Cathay Pacific's long-haul network.

Dragonair offered Business Class and Economy Class on its Airbus A320 and A330 fleet. The airline provided quality regional service consistent with Cathay Pacific standards, with a focus on connecting mainland Chinese cities to Hong Kong for onward long-haul connections.

Dragonair's routes were absorbed by Cathay Pacific after the brand was first renamed to Cathay Dragon in 2016 and then ceased operations in 2020. Cathay Pacific now directly operates many of the regional routes previously served by Dragonair, including key mainland China services.

Cathay Dragon ceased operations in October 2020 as part of a major restructuring of the Cathay Pacific Group in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic severely impacted Hong Kong aviation, and the group consolidated all operations under the Cathay Pacific brand. Approximately 5,900 jobs were cut across the group during the restructuring.
