I was excited about to fly in Cathay Pacific. I saw many reports about the Business Class.
I have a status and i went the to the The Wing First Class Lounge. Is really cute, with marbe and a open view to see the gates, fingers and a part of the runway.



The food service is by The Peninsula Hotel. The food is fresh and tasty.

I went to take a shower, a marble walls and floors, is crazy to the view.



In the lounge have a restaurant. Is quiet and nice and you can order by menu or take in the buffet. The true is, if you dont call the weiter nobody come to ask what you want to order. This is was a little wear but the service is good.



My flight was delayed so i went to the bar to take a drink. The barman is really kind



So i went to the gate. The sign in the airport is not the best or i am a little silly, but if you have time you will arrive intime.



Sometimes you have to relax your feets too, right? lol

You have a chance to rechard your devices and if you dont have adapter you can do it by USB port. This was really good.

This time was a regional Business Class with a 2-3-2 layout, but i think was a taste of the service of CX. The true was, the flight was 2 hours delayed and change the plane (A 77w for the original 777) but the crew really maked the differece.



The headset is not noise cancelling but is fine for 2 hours flight.

I was impressive, a menu with 4 options meal for just 3 hours flight? This is a part of a great service.
The TCP come to say hello customizing every pax with the last name, she had a list in her hands. But when she return to serve she remember every last name of the pax and they call every one for the last name, with NO LIST. So i was smiling about this little touch but for me was a great personal touch.



A curiosity was when the crew open the door in PEK and everybody, from the first row untill the last one start to cough. Starting itching in your throat and them you start to cough too about the polution.

Conclusion

Well, the TCP remembering all the last names, a good seat and good pitch for 3 hours flight and 4 meal option and a really nice and complete lounge makes this CX experience like a really great.
You have the pre order items option too, like memorabilia and Cathay Pacific scale models, toys and other stuff.

  • Thanks for the report. However, the aircraft should be a 777-300, not a 77W. The regional business class is not on the 77W, it has the long haul Cirrus lieflat seat.
