Cathay Group has added another freighter to its pipeline: Air Hong Kong will lease one Airbus A330P2F converted cargo aircraft for delivery in the fourth quarter of 2026.
The long-term deal is with Air Transport Services Group through Cargo Aircraft Management. Air Hong Kong will operate the aircraft mainly on mainland China and regional routes for Cathay Cargo, adding lift and flexibility as the carrier scales its network. The move follows Cathay Cargo’s recent order for two more Airbus A350F freighters, extending a dual-track fleet strategy that combines near-term capacity with next-generation lift.
Air Hong Kong already runs an all-A330 freighter fleet of 14 aircraft for DHL Express, and the new lease aligns with traffic growth tied to Hong Kong International Airport’s Three-Runway System.
