August 16, 2019: Rupert Hogg, CEO, Cathay Pacific has resigned from his posts of CEO and executive director in the wake of the Hong Kong pro-democracy protests.

“It has been my honour to lead the Cathay Pacific Group over the last three years.

As the protests escalated and the airport remained shut for two days in a row, the Airport Authority Hong Kong obtained an interim injunction "to restrain persons from unlawfully and wilfully obstructing or interfering with the proper use of Hong Kong International Airport" (HKIA).

HKIA also informed that Airport Authority Hong Kong (AA) will implement access control at the terminal buildings

The board of directors of Cathay Pacific announced that it had accepted the resignation of Hogg and Loo, while appointing Tang and Lam as CEO and chief customer and commercial officer, respectively.
