Cathay Pacific airline loses bag containing NZD1 million at airport



Cathay Pacific has been having some pretty rough luck recently. After contaminated water was found last month in their airplanes, they reportedly lost last Friday night a bag containing NZD1 million (4,080,500 yuan) at the Hong Kong International airport.

The missing bag, along with 12 others, were carrying cash valuing NZD10 million (40,805,000 yuan) when it was flown from New Zealand through a Cathay Pacific airplane.

Upon arrival at the airport at 9:10 p.m., the cash bags, labelled with"G4S International", were being delivered to the Bank of China with a 2 x 1.5 x 1.5-meter luggage box, through the cargo transfer service provided by Cathay's subsidiary, Hong Kong Airport Services.

Surveillance footage shows that the three bags fell out from the trailer, which was not properly fastened, while it was making a turn at a corner.
