Cathay Pacific announced the resumption of its non-stop passenger service to Hyderabad, the capital city of India’s Telangana state, beginning 30th March 2025. 

Now open for booking, Cathay Pacific’s upcoming Hong Kong-Hyderabad service marks the airline’s latest step in strengthening its network presence in India and enhancing connectivity at its home hub in Hong Kong.

The non-stop service between Hong Kong and Hyderabad will be operated by the  airline’s Airbus A330-300 aircraft, featuring Business and Economy cabins. 

The  service will operate three times a week upon launch, increasing to five times a week  from 1 September 2025.
