Cotai Water Jet and Cathay Pacific have signed an innovative codeshare agreement that will make it easier, faster and more convenient to book ferry tickets to Macao for passengers flying to Hong Kong. This arrangement simplifies the purchasing process, provides greater passenger assurance, boosts journey connectivity and enhances accessibility to Macao.
The partnership will see Cathay Pacific add its “CX” code on Cotai Water Jet services operating between Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) and Taipa Ferry Terminal, the main access point to Sands Resorts Macao’s four exceptional Cotai Strip integrated resorts; The Venetian Macao, The Plaza Macao, Sands Cotai Central, and The Parisian Macao.
The CX designation allows Cathay Pacific customers in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore and the US to book tickets on Cotai Water Jet via the airline’s local website. Booking eligibility for other international markets will be extended over the next few months.
Other benefits for Cathay Pacific passengers travelling to Macao include convenient check-through baggage and a choice of six daily direct Cotai Water Jet sailings departing from the SkyPier at HKIA, ensuring effortless connectivity. The arrangements will be particularly convenient for meetings and conference organisers in terms of consolidating large-scale travel transactions.
Derek Cridland, Vice President Ferry Operations, Cotai Water Jet said, “We are very excited about this new agreement with Cathay Pacific which represents a significant step forward in providing an even better service to our international customers. The arrangement with Cotai Water Jet will provide hassle-free, seamless air-sea transfers for our mutual customers and meetings and conference delegates, enhancing accessibility and offering greater choices for an unrivalled travel experience.”
