Cathay Pacific will operate this route with an Airbus A330-300 aircraft featuring a three-class configuration – new Business Class, Premium Economy Class and the new long-haul Economy Class seats.
The airline’s new Business Class cabin features private, lie-flat seats with direct aisle access. Cathay Pacific was voted “World’s Best Business Class” in the 2012 Skytrax World Airline Awards™.
Cathay Pacific’s new Premium Economy Class features a quieter, more spacious cabin than the traditional Economy Class with between 26 and 34 seats per aircraft. The seat pitch is 38 inches and the seat itself is wider and has a bigger recline. It has a large meal table, cocktail table, footrest, a 10.6-inch personal television, an in-seat power outlet, a multi-port connector for personal devices and extra personal stowage space.
