"Fire services met the aircraft on arrival," a Cathay Pacific statement said. "The aircraft stopped on the taxiway and sparks from the No. 2 engine were reported. They were doused by fire extinguishers."
The airline said there were no injuries, and passengers will be accommodated on other flights.
Cathay Pacific and Rolls Royce, the maker of the engine, have launched an investigation into the incident, which has been reported to the Hong Kong Civil Aviation Department, the airline said.
