Special Ticketing Arrangements for Outbound Travel Alert Related Incidents
Last updated: 09 Jun 2015
Ticket eligibility
This special ticketing arrangement is applicable to tickets with the following conditions:
Cathay Pacific tickets (i.e. ticket number starting with “160”) which are purchased directly from Cathay Pacific in Hong Kong or online at www.cathaypacific.com.hk or through travel agents in Hong Kong for travel originating from Hong Kong.
(For tickets purchased outside Hong Kong, please contact your local Cathay Pacific office or travel agent for assistance.)
The ticket has to be issued on or before the Red or Black travel alert issue date and is for travel on Cathay Pacific / Dragonair flights between the Red or Black travel alert issue date and the following 7 days. (The applicable travel period may be extended depending on the severity and duration of a travel related incident).
These special arrangements do not apply to destinations which already have a Red or Black Travel Alert in force prior to the publishing of this guideline.
The destinationl with a Red or Black Travel Alert has to be either part of your journey itinerary or your final destination. If transportation on other airlines are involved, we may require you to present the conjunction ticket(s) showing the full itinerary of your journey.
Example itinerary:
Hong Kong to Bangkok on Cathay Pacific Airways (transit in Bangkok)
Bangkok to Cairo on other airlines (Cairo as final destination)
Red or Black travel alert is issued for Cairo but no travel alert for Bangkok
For the above example, the special ticketing arrangements are applicable to Cathay Pacific flights between Hong Kong and Bangkok, on condition that you are able to present a ticket valid for travel between Bangkok and Cairo, where Cairo is your final destination.
