Cathay Pacific operated its inaugural service from Hong Kong to Tel Aviv on March 26, 2017. Flight CX675, a non-stop service flown by the advanced Airbus A350 aircraft, departed Hong Kong at 01:00, touching down at Ben Gurion Airport on schedule at 07:53 local time.

Consul General Sagi Karni especially flew in on this first flight from Hong Kong to Tel Aviv to join the celebration.

At a special gate ceremony, Cathay Pacific Director Corporate Development and IT Mr Paul Loo was joined by officiating guests from the Government of Israel, Transport Minister Mr Israel Katz and Tourism Minister Mr Yariv Levin, at a gate ceremony celebrating the launch of the airline's new Tel Aviv service. 

Originally launched as a four-times-weekly service, Mr Loo said the strength of advance bookings on the route has prompted Cathay Pacific to increase frequency to five times per week from 1 September to 17 November 2017, providing greater convenience to business and leisure customers travelling between these two great cities and giving passengers from Israel easier access to destinations in Southwest Pacific and across Asia through the airlines’ hub in Hong Kong
