"My favourite stopover location is Hong Kong. It boosts old-fashioned Chinese neighbourhoods combined with a modern, Western influence."
Nicole, Travel specialist
Plan a stopover
To break up your flight, you can choose to do a stopover. For example, stop in Singapore when you fly with Singapore Airlines, in Dubai when you fly with Emirates or in Hong Kong when you book with Cathay Pacific.
Discover a new city and their unique culture. Taste new flavours, shop and find the local gems and soak up the atmosphere. Or opt for a tropical stop in the Cook Islands. Relax in clear waters and on white sands, and continue your flight to your destination rested and refreshed.
