It'll roll out in 27 October.

In a release, Cathay Pacific Airways announced that it will launch a new four-times-weekly service to the Maldives, one of the most-sought-after getaways in the world for leisure travellers. 

The new service is scheduled to commence on 27 October 2013, subject to government approval. Located in the middle of the Indian Ocean, the Maldives is a chain of islands whose beauty is unsurpassed, with pristine white-sand beaches, azure seas and amazing coral reefs. 

To ensure passengers enjoy the maximum comfort for their journey to the Maldives, Cathay Pacific will use an Airbus A330-300 aircraft equipped with its award-winning Business Class, new Premium Economy Class and Long-haul Economy Class cabins.

Flights will depart from Hong Kong to Malé International Airport every Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.

Cathay Pacific Chief Executive John Slosar said: "The Maldives is the perfect getaway for holidaymakers from Hong Kong and around the world. Cathay Pacific is a premium service airline and our passengers will enjoy the best products and services when they fly with us to the Maldives.

The continued expansion of our network highlights our commitment to boosting Hong Kong's place as one of the world’s great international aviation hubs.”
