Cathay Pacific’s HK Express to charge fliers for carry-on suitcase option under new baggage policy

Cathay Pacific Airways budget airline HK Express will charge passengers more if they wish to travel with a carry-on suitcase, with the option no longer available to those flying on the cheapest fares under the carrier’s new baggage policy.

The policy took effect on Wednesday as part of an increase in the number of fare types from two to four.
