Cathay Pacific confirmed the tail of an Airbus A330-300 struck the runway during a go-around at Hong Kong International Airport last Friday. The aircraft landed safely with no injuries reported, and the aviation regulator has ordered a report.

Narita International Airport operator forecasts 1.59 million travelers between Friday and May 10, a 2% increase from last year's Golden Week. Sunday saw peak departures at nearly 57,000, while arrivals will likely peak May 6. However, February departures dropped 7.4% year-over-year and 28.8% from 2019, with analysts noting negative outlook for the remainder of the year.
