On Wednesday (July 15, 2026), Cathay Pacific announced an extension of their coverage in Latin America with the addition of new codeshare flights to Fortaleza and Recife in Brazil, Buenos Aires in Argentina and Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic via Madrid through its oneworld alliance partner, Iberia.  These new codeshare flights bring Argentina and the Dominican Republic into Cathay’s codeshare network for the first time while strengthening connectivity between Hong Kong and Latin America.


In Wednesday’s announcement, Cathay’s Chief Customer and Commercial Officer, Lavinia Lau, said,


“We are delighted to welcome these new destinations in Latin America to our codeshare network.  Furthermore, by increasing our Madrid service to daily, we are reinforcing our position as the only airline offering non-stop connectivity between Hong Kong and Spain.  These enhancements underscore our commitment to strengthening connectivity between Asia and markets around the world, offering passengers greater choice and convenience, and enhancing Hong Kong’s status as one of the world’s leading international aviation hubs.”

Currently, Cathay Pacific serves six destinations across four countries in Latin America, including Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo in Brazil, Mexico City and Guadalajara in Mexico, Lima in Peru and Santiago in Chile, through codeshare partnerships via gateways in Europe, North America and Oceania.  In support of the new codeshare flights, Cathay Pacific will expand their direct Hong Kong-Madrid route to daily service starting October 25, 2026.  The route will operate on a staggered schedule, with the three additional flights on Monday, Thursday and Saturday providing customers with the option of a late-night departure out of Europe.
