An End of an Era: the Queen of the Skies
Today, Cathay Pacific announced that it will cut 8,500 jobs and end the Cathay Dragon brand due to the coronavirus pandemic. Looking back, one of the most memorable flight was the farewell flight of its Boeing 747-400 back in 2016.
With more and more Boeing 747 retiring especially during the pandemic, it is the end of an era for the Queen of the Skies. We thought it would be most appropriate for us to start our FLY section with a post on the farewell flights of Cathay Pacific Boeing 747-400 (B-HUJ). It was a once-in-a-lifetime flight and would definitely be our most memorable flights of all forever.
