1 Ticket, 1 Treewas launched last year in Thailand, one of Cathay Pacific's key destinations in Southeast Asia. A similar initiative, Join For Trees, was rolled out earlier this year in Indonesia and the Philippines, where the airline committed to plant a tree for every new member sign-up.

With both these efforts combined, Cathay Pacific has committed to plant more than 1,700 trees in the mangrove forests of Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines. Today, About 50 volunteers comprising Cathay Pacific employees, trade agents and other partners came together at Taman Wisata Alam Mangrove to plant saplings to kick start this year's initiative.

With 1 Ticket, 1 Tree covering more countries this year, Cathay Pacific hopes to plant significantly more trees this year than last. "This initiative underscores our commitment to our customers in Southeast Asia," Dominic Perret, Regional General Manager, Southeast Asia and Southwest Pacific, said at the planting event. "1 Ticket, 1 Tree is in line with our broader sustainability efforts, which include contributing purposefully to the communities we serve. We embarked on this tree-planting effort because many of our communities in Southeast Asia depend on mangroves for food, protection and income. As always, we strive to make a meaningful impact, both in service and sustainability."
