A Cathay Pacific flight from Sydney to Hong Kong was unable to depart because one of its pilots was suspended by the airline for allegedly failing a pre-departure alcohol breath test.
Flight CX110 had been scheduled to depart Sydney at 7.35am on Wednesday for Hong Kong, but was delayed for more than a day as it was left without sufficient flight crew after the second officer failed to adhere to Cathay Pacific’s alcohol and other drugs policy, the airline alleged in a statement.
