They may have been entangled in the middle of an industrial dispute with bosses, but staff from Cathay Pacific brushed that aside to raise money for Operation Santa Claus by taking part in a flash mob.

More than 115 Cathay Pacific Airways Cabin Crew shared the festive spirit with their colleagues and the Hong Kong public by staging the six-minute flash mob in Cathay City on December 13 to raise money for the charity.

Surprising their colleagues at lunchtime, the crew used props including their crew luggage and meal trolleys while dancing from the crew lounge to the staff canteen to songs including Come They Told Him and Macarena.

At the end of the performance, a children's choir from South Lantau sung a trio of Christmas carols while volunteers collected donations from the crowd.
