Cathay Pacific and its subsidiary Dragonair have suspended new recruitment as part of measures to rein in costs. Cathay said all departments of the company had been asked to review their budgets. The airline issued a profit warning last Wednesday. The carrier said a revised operating plan is expected to be finalised later this month.
