CATHAY PACIFIC BUSINESS CLASS LOUNGE REVIEW  - HONG KONG AIRPORT

Review by : T Cho

Date :   13 August 2009

Maybe it was the time I visited this lounge, but there were so many passengers entering but not enough seats. After walking around for 10 minutes with my wife and daughter, I was finally able to secure some seats. Granted the area around the seat had not been cleaned for a while which resulted in heaps of dirty plates and glasses. With seats secured, I waited to see if anyone would clean up the plates/glasses. Someone did arrive 15 minutes later to clean it up. The lounge was chaotic around 1-30pm on a Saturday with way too many people and not enough seats. The noodle bar is always good, but the sandwiches and other items were not as good. Good supply of drinks/ beverages. As another poster stated, the lounge is really showing wear and tear. It is sad, because this lounge and The Pier are the barometer for all other Cathay Pacific lounges. Another gripe I had was the elevator that connects the lounge to the departure gates, way too small and slow. If I was in a rush, I probably would have missed my flight, despite it only being 7 minutes away at Gate 21. It may be better to grab a bite to eat outside and enjoy the spacious seats at the gates if the lounge continues to be way it was when I visited.

I little dated and old despite the newness of the Airport. Friendly welcoming staff, not bad choice of drinks and food. None of the electric sockets worked where I was seated. Not too crowded. Internet and computers available for public use.

CATHAY PACIFIC BUSINESS CLASS "THE WING" LOUNGE REVIEW  - HONG KONG AIRPORT

Review by : James Henderson

Date :   31 December 2008

Friendly efficient staff compliment a large open plan lounge the looks out over the airport. There is a great little restaurant style noodle bar with a selection of Chinese food but watch out if you are looking for more western cuisine as it is lacking. So to is the selection of drinks which seems to have shrunk in recent years, possibly due to cut backs. There is a large room with multiple PC terminals for good reliable internet surfing. Wi-Fi is free and up to par with speed and reliability. Restrooms and Shower cubicles are small and showing a little wear and tear as the years go by. However, they are clean! Overall this is a great lounge but slowly starting to show some of its age.

CATHAY PACIFIC BUSINESS CLASS LOUNGE REVIEW  - TAIPEI TAOYUAN AIRPORT

Review by : T Cho

Date :   14 November 2008

The lounge was small compared to other Cathay lounges I have been at. There was the ever constant noodle bar serving up good food. They had two types of sandwiches (vegetarian and w/ meat) and they had cake + chinese dim sum. Good varieties of drinks including premium liquor and soft drinks. The lounge itself does not compare to the Wing or Pier lounges in HK, but for Taipei, it provides a nice oasis for travelers to eat and drink prior to their flight. It is a better alternative to the lacklustre duty free that is provided at Taoyuan airport. If there, try the beef noodles in soup and not the spicy peanut sauce based noodles. There was free wifi and it was fast as well. Overall, a very nice place to spend an hour or two before one's flight.

CATHAY PACIFIC FIRST / BUSINESS CLASS LOUNGE REVIEW  - MELBOURNE AIRPORT

Haven't been to this lounge since before the renovations but what a difference. Great layout with a combination of lounge seating, bar and workstations along the lines of other CX lounges and plenty of filtered light. Good food, drink and reading material selections.

CATHAY PACIFIC FIRST CLASS WING LOUNGE REVIEW  - HONG KONG INT'L AIRPORT

Review by : Nick Fortuna

As a Diamond Frequent Flyer, I enjoy this lounge quite regularly. And regularly experience the comfort, excellent service, wonderful showers, fantastic staff, great catering and the WOEFUL internet connection. Which drops out regularly. It seems three wireless services are available, but they seem to drop out randomly, without rhyme or reason. Even while typing this, the connection failed twice. Not good enough, Cathay Pacific.
