How Much Can You Actually Save?
The discount is 9% of the fare, capped at 15,000 yen. In practical terms:
- Round-trip totals under roughly 166,000 yen: you get the full 9% off
- Round-trip totals above roughly 167,000 yen: the cap kicks in, giving a flat 15,000 yen off
In other words, most Economy fares land in the 9% band, while the pricier Premium Economy and Business Class fares are far more likely to hit the 15,000 yen ceiling. Actual fares vary widely by route, date and seat availability, so always confirm the live price on the booking screen.
How to Book
- Search a round-trip itinerary departing Japan on the official site or app
- Enter JPCXSUMMER in the promo code field
- Confirm the discounted total before completing payment
If you forget the code, the booking goes through at the regular price and discounts generally cannot be applied retroactively. Always verify the discount before you pay.

Summary
With booking open through August 14, 2026 and departures allowed through December 31, 2026, the Cathay Summer Sale fits neatly around autumn and early-winter travel plans. Beyond Japan’s six main gateways, HK Express codeshare service extends the offer to six regional cities, so travelers outside the major hubs get a shot too. Because everything from Economy to Business Class qualifies, those eyeing a cabin upgrade stand to extract the most from the 15,000 yen cap. Book before the 1,400-seat allocation runs out.
