Hong Kong's Cathay Pacific Airlines is suspending cargo flights for a week due to stricter quarantine requirements for air crews, potentially adding to strain on global supply chains.
The airlines says long-haul flights to Europe, across the Pacific and to Riyadh and Dubai are suspended through Jan. 6.
It promised to try to help customers ``mitigate the disruption.''
The airline's workforce is stretched thin after the quarantine for Cathay Pacific flight crews who return from abroad was extended to one week in a hotel room from three days.
Cathay said earlier it would reduce its schedule of passenger flights in the first three months of 2022 due to staff shortages.
