HKG-YYZ Business Class. Great service, excellent food, nice planes (777-300, new
configuration), and comfortable lie-flat seats. Seats may be a challenge if you're over 6 feet
tall, however. IFE is the best - only negative for this flight is the departure time (2:45
am). Not sure why Cathay can't get better times in Toronto.

Beijing - Hong Kong - Penang. It was a first return trip for my mother and my 4 year old niece
to Penang. The flight was CX6877 from Beijing - I requested for 'meet & assist' service from
Cathay Pacific to help my mother for during transit at Hong Kong Airport. I double confirmed
at the counter during the check in at Beijing Airport. Unfortunately when reach HKG no one
came to assist her. She was alone, shocked and lost. Even though she finally got on to the
plane but she does not have the confident to take the flight again by herself. This is very
disappointing.

HKG-LAX. Best First class seat in my opinion. Odd menu - only one Western meal. Wines seem
downgraded - no Krug any more and no dessert wine. Attendants friendly, but drinks slow to
come and meal very protracted. Not much cabin presence during the night and did have to ask
for several things which should have been done automatically. With only 9 passengers in First
this should not be the case.

Perth-Hong Kong-Vancouver return. The seats were old, worn out and impossible to get
comfortable in. I am medium build and my wife is small. Cabin was 2x4x2 and we had seats
forward cabin H&K on all sectors. There were not enough cabin crew, so the service was dismal
and food uninspiring. Quality of the wine was worst I have tasted, couldn't drink it, and
that's saying something. I wrote to Cathay to complain but their response was a care factor of
nil.

JFK-YVR-JFK Boeing 777-300er. A very comfortable experience. New plane with good seats. Good
food. Nice attendants. Only problem was the online booking. They had a mysterious double
booking for us and threatened (via e mail) to cancel all of them two days prior to departure.
Tried to reach the online office in Canada or elsewhere... it was impossible. Be warned: if
you book online the usual Cathay offices are not able to do anything! We had to finally ask
relatives to call the German branch.

I had my flights changed 3 weeks before my holiday. Lost out on last day of my holiday and had
to endure a 15 hour wait for connection in London as a result. Despite two emails to the
company prior to leaving to try and sort out something more acceptable, I got no answer.
Inflight entertainment and cabin staff service all very good. However, the most uncomfortable
and cramped seats I have sat in together with an extended journey time overshadowed it all and
made it very unenjoyable.

JFK-HKG-MNL-HKG-YVR-JFK. Staff friendly and helpful. The prices were excellent! Food delicious
and snacks available throughout flight on JFK-HKG and HKG-YVR leg. AVOD had a wide selection
of the latest videos and music. The sliding back seats were comfortable in my opinion. The
negative feedback I have to give was the cabin cleanliness.

AMS-HKG-TPE Business class, B747-400. I would have given an 8 or a 9 if it weren't for the
poor ground service in Amsterdam Airport. We arrived from Kazakhstan early morning and the
JAL lounge used by CX only opened 1 hour before boarding. Also, there was only 1 person at
the transfer desk and we waited 1 hour to get our luggage confirmed. Other than that, CX
onboard service was great, IFE is excellent although I have to agree with many that the new
business class seats are a bit narrow.

SIN-HKG return. Both ways on dated B773, seats hard and catering so-so. IFE wasn't on demand
so limited selection with lousy quality screens. They have to introduce the new B773ER to
compete with Singapore Airlines on this route.

Manila to New York via Hong Kong. Economy Class very good, AVOD on the Hong Kong-New York
flight. Staff excellent and helped us to transit in Hong Kong. Food was not too good. The 777
(Hong Kong to USA) was very new while the 747 (Philippines to Hong Kong) was a bit old.

JFK-YVR-JFK: Outbound in the new business class, return in First. The herringbone
configuration of the new business class definitely caters to the individual traveler who
values privacy. For couples and others traveling together, I would recommend taking adjacent
seats on the window sides, 19K and 20K, for example, rather than in the middle section. I
would characterise the feeling as cozy and private, rather than cramped. It's very comfortable
in the seated position and the flat bed works well. Very good AVOD with a great selection of
quality movies. Warm, efficient service. The first-class seating is, unlike on some airlines,
a major step up from business. The configuration in the first-class cabin provides both
privacy and a sense of space, a great combination.
