A Cathay Pacific flight from Hong Kong to London was intercepted by Hungarian fighter jets over Romania due to a communication error. The flight crew mistakenly selected the wrong radio frequency while responding to instructions for another aircraft, leading to a loss of contact with air traffic control. A Hong Kong investigation report revealed the error, prompting serious concern from the Civil Aviation Department, which has mandated additional training and improved monitoring procedures for the airline's crew.
