Cathay Pacific Resumes Flights Over Russia
As a consequence of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, most European airlines have been rerouting flights around Russia, as heightened alerts have made for dangerous conditions. However, many Asian airlines had never stopped flying over the Eurasian country, mainly due to political ties. Cathay Pacific was one of the airlines that halted flights in March. Now, almost eight months later, flight CX841 from New York to Hong Kong became the first Cathay Pacific flight to fly over Russia. (aeroxplorer.com) Mais...

Last I read, China was trying to kill off Cathay Pacific.
Remind me to never book on Cathay. There are so many other options in those neck-of-the-woods. I recently flew my fav, Singapore Airlines. An excellent airline in every way and they fly everywhere Cathay flies.

Is Russia collecting overflight fees? Is Cathy paying them? Wouldn’t paying them violate sanctions, not that China would care?
And having studied the Military practices of the old USSR and now Russian Federation since I first joined the military once again Putin is winning. The world is tired of continued conflict. All one has to do is study how Russian has held on during Afghanistan, Syria, and Africa over the years. He took his playbook right out of the old KGB and eventually will win this current conflict since politicians will ultimately give up and move on. Cathay is just one, but finally, others will follow suit. It's a world chess game at which Putin is very gifted at playing over other countries.
And before you jump down my throat on my comment keep in mind I'm Ukraine as well as a Retired Marine who studied their tactics for years.
