Cathay Dragon was a wholly owned subsidiary and the regional wing of Cathay Pacific,[3] concentrating on destinations in the People's Republic of China and within Asia, while its parent operated a worldwide network to destinations in the Asia-Pacific, Europe, North America and Africa.[4]

Destinations

Initially, Dragonair operated its passenger services only as regular charter flights; these were passenger flights that were operated by the airline on a programme basis similar to scheduled flights, but were not part of the air services agreement between their respective countries.[5][6] The airline was granted scheduled services rights in 1990.[7]

The destination list shows airports that were served by Cathay Dragon as part of its regular charter and scheduled passenger services at the time of its cessation of operations in October 2020, as well as scheduled services of its former cargo division.
