The Sanctuary by Pure Yoga is open to travellers who have access to The Pier Business Class Lounge at Hong Kong International Airport, including Silver, Gold and Diamond Marco Polo Club members. Business class and first class passengers of Cathay Pacific can also enjoy the new offering.

For those without lounge access, there are still plenty of ways to benefit from Cathay Pacific’s ongoing wellness initiatives and partnership with Pure. Onboard, passengers will find six videos on the inflight entertainment (IFE) system. Narrated by Pure instructors (in English, Cantonese, Mandarin or Japanese), the videos show how to perform a series of simple yoga poses and meditations.

Cathay Pacific Entertainment, Platforms and Connectivity Manager, Simon Cuthbert, says: ‘We all know that sitting still for a long period of time can be uncomfortable. The need to get up, move and get your blood pumping is important during a flight. Yoga is an innovative way to do this. There is a series of exercises that can easily be done from the aircraft seat, while other moves are suitable for after the flight in your hotel.’
