Hong Kong-based Cathay Dragon boasts a network that covers 53 destinations across the Asia-Pacific region, including 23 cities in mainland China. The codeshare relationship with Cathay Dragon strengthens American’s existing partnership with the Cathay Pacific group.

American first launched service to Hong Kong in 2013 and currently operates daily, year-round service from Dallas-Fort Worth and Los Angeles.
