Does anyone know why Cathay does not use the Polar Routes for its HKG-YYZ service and instead opt for the traditional (and more time and fuel consuming for westbound flights) North Pacific Routings with tech stop at YVR?
A340-300 is capable of flying the Polar Routes and CX had demonstrated it a few years ago by flying a YYZ > HKG flight non-stop with A343. But after the route proving flight, CX did not proceed to make the schedule service non-stop.
Are there anyone here from CX? Colin Parker, would you know anything about this?
