Cathay Pacific under pressure amid contract negotiations and job cuts

Hong Kong's flagship airline Cathay Pacific is facing mounting pressure from its pilots and flight attendants.

Cathay is cutting salaries and sacking more than 5,000 local staff as part of a mass restructuring due the business impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.
