A Cathay customer officer at the airport, who declined to provide his name, said that nearly all of the airline's flights were full.

The airport, one of the world's busiest, blamed demonstrators for halting flights on Monday. The Airport Authority cancelled all outbound and inbound flights after 3:30 pm on Monday after a large number of protesters seriously hindered operations.
