Actually, they are not force majeure, but instead a business decision.

If CX is forced to cancel the service because of a ban imposed by any governments, then it is force majeure. If HKG is so dangerous to travel in and/or out, then it is force majeure.

However, in this case, the cut back is mainly due to the low demand associated with coronavirus, but not because how Hong Kong or other countries are being impacted, then it is not force majeure.
