  • Join me on an amazing flight in the First Class cabin of a Cathay Pacific Boeing 777-300ER from Hong Kong to Frankfurt. IMHO, Cathay Pacific's First Class product ranks among the best in the skies.

      They were phenomenal. Times have changed. If they survive people around the world want cheap tickets. & cheap gets you cheap reductions in staffing & cabin amenities. Food etc it trickles down. Don’t expect the old Cathy on the cheap tickets. Cheap gets you cheap.

    I have been a diamond Marco Polo member since 2009. I only used to fly Cathay Pacific and felt that they were the best airline in the world. Cathay doesn't always operate the best hard products, but they more than make up by offering the finest soft products, including the best cabin crew on the air.

    Flew Cathay Sing apore-Honkers and Honkers to Melbourne in 1977 as a 29 year old single, BW(Before Wife), that's 43 years ago, Economy i.e. on the cheap, but nothing was cheap on theses flights with Cathay, we had a great crews on board and the flight back to Melbourne the crew joined some of us (as a night time flight) discussing our experiences on our 14 day trip, this made us feel part of the crew, I have been flying since 1964 and have always wanted to feel the same as these flights with Cathay. My company always flew with the Australian business carrier's. I hope you enjoy this video as I did. Phill the Flyer

So when I found this report, and Cathay Pacific in F class no doubt, the first thing I did was cancel all appointments, grab a lovely big cup of tea and settle in for, what I knew would be the best half hour of my week! Thank you for making my week. And on behalf of those half a million subscribers, can I just say, thank you for every report you post. They give us an insight into experiences that we may never be able to have in person, but nonetheless, an experience we can have....

We had a 6 hour layover in Hong Kong on our return trip so we were able to use a Cabana in The Wing lounge and then had a late breakfast in The Pier. A wonderful full service airline and we hope to fly with them again.

    Flew CX F 4 times in 2019 thanks to the error fare. Each flight and experience was great. One of the flights i developed a cold as soon as i hit the BA lounge and the crew were very attentive when i asked for tea and such. Unfortunately i didn’t get to enjoy the food as much as i was either stuffed from the lounge or not hungry, but when i did eat the food was excellentl. The dim sum pre arrival was beautiful and tasty, the Caviar was perfect, the burgers are insanely good, and of course my last flight i discovered how amazing the steak was, it was perfect. I watched Chernobyl and texted my friends back home with the free WiFi most of the time, one flight i slept 9 whole hours, i think it was the flight to Vancouver after a long day in Vietnam. The bedding was out of this world, it was so soft. Unfortunately we didn’t get the new meal service as that was only on a handful of flights. The crew were also nice one particular crew were amazing, the others were good, but nothing special. I love CX a d their F product, but it was exiting to fly JAL coach on the way home and get a change of scenery

    My family and I travelled with Cathay Pacific back in 2014 from Karachi to Bangkok and back and I must say, the whole experience was phenomenal. Even though we travelled in economy , their service was top notch still! Sad that they don't operate in Pakistan anymore:( We had to experience an unexpected over night delay at Bangkok airport during our return flight but the airline was kind enough to accommodate all passengers in the transit hotel at the airport with halal food and breakfast included specially since the majority of passengers on that flight were Muslims. Our flight in the morning was short, about 3-4hrs so obviously we were given only one meal-breakfast along with other refreshments but my youngest brother who was 6 at the time got hungry even after the breakfast. Since it was a short flight they didn't really have any proper snacks on-board but they gave my brother a cookie which he was really happy about and kept coming back to ask him if he wanted more! Overall loved the experience. Definitely recommend!!!

    What a thrill for me seeing HKG airport again. My son lives there and I can't visit him because of the COVID-19. I hope i'll be allowed to meet him in September!! Your videos are always very interesting and relaxing, too.
