Remember this well. She was on a sales mission with the ultimate destination  being Australia. There were problems with getting clearances for over flights because of the noise factor. I think in the end she only made it as far as Manila where she was taken over by Imelda Marcos who came back to HK on it with her troupe of "Blue Ladies" on a shopping trip.

Some lucky CX pilots then had a burn up over the South China sea before returning to HK after which she left never to return.
