本期内容：
Cathay Pacific has said it will honour first-class and business-class tickets that it sold to some lucky passengers for a fraction 1 of the usual price. The Hong Kong-based airline mistakenly sold business-class seats on August flights from Vietnam 2 to New York for about $675 return. Prices on the same route 3 in July and September cost $16,000. The airline admitted that it "made a mistake", but said it would honour the tickets.
