Cathay Pacific
IT all began with the vision of two former World War II pilots, American Roy Farrell and Australian Sydney de Kantzow, who registered Cathay Pacific Airways in September 1946. Legend has it that the founders thought of its unique name in a bar at the Manila Hotel. After a majority shareholding was acquired by Hong Kong trading company Butterfield and Swire, Cathay Pacific Airways Limited began operations on July 1, 1948.
Cathay Pacific has a special relationship with the Philippines, which is one of its earliest passenger flight destinations along with Shanghai, Bangkok, Singapore and Saigon.
