You are correct about the airport though after living and working there for 17 years. Long walk to immigration if last flight arrivals. Everything smooth though. Inchon also great and gates closer from checkin.
Very efficient! Only thing to be careful of is very early morning flights during peak times. I happened to catch a very big group and almost miss my flight! South security gates are sometimes less crowded
@@somethingisbaking2401 CX has obviously been struggling since 2017, but let's not forget how many times they've won the best airline award in the past decade... Also obviously been ranking highly consistently. SQ definitely has a leg over them in recent times (last 6 years or so).
Yes,I will. Many inconsistent experiences with CX over 25 years but J price pleasing and as all NH award seats are waitlisted for 12 months,a good alternative.I checked every day and free call US NH who are helpful. Always enjoy Japan but working of course different to relaxing travelling. Challenges await always but great we can travel safely with millions of employees around the world who are dedicated to this cause. Well done.
Thanks for watching, Tony! I personally prefer the Club Suite - it’s a more modern product. Also big fan of the sliding door but I have to say I really like the extra sleeping space Cathay Suite. What do you think? 😊 Can’t wait for the rollout of the new Cathay Aria suite! ✈️
Hey there, Sicelo! Great to see your comment. The song is A Night Alone by TrackTribe. Hope that the Cathay flight from Joburg comes very soon for you! Thanks a lot for watching and leaving a comment ✈
Hey there, Matthew! You can typically enjoy those stunning views of Victoria Harbour from A seats a few minutes after take-off. Hope this answers your question 😃✈
Not even close. I have done 2k flights. NH and Jal always better. J on CX does not load all meals for J and no choice at times. Low status credits on 9 hour flights to SYD but at moment are reasonable price. Also take care of their frequent flyers before high level Oneworld. Hard to obtain refunds for downgrades which occur frequently. I pay my own way and have a choice. Surprisingly Xiamen MF superb carrier in region. Safe travels.
Thanks for watching and sharing your experience, Gregory! Quite surprising to know that downgrades in J are frequent. I know CX have been cancelling loads of flights over the past few months due to flight crew sickness/shortages - hope the situation gets better soon. Never flown with Xiamen by the way! Hope I can get to fly with them soon 😊✈️
After eating the food in the lounge honestly can't understand how u can eat in the aircraft ...and u had all the courses...can't understand this mentality
@@comfytravels In the past CX is one of the best in the world. Mainly because of its multi ethnic FAs from SEA, India etc. The service is outstanding. HK was the western oriental city in Asia which westerners feel safe and in a way similar like at home with a twist of chinese culture. I always remember the phrase "HK..the heart of Asia". CX is like HK now. Western ppl. cannot relate to its new communist way of life. HK and CX become typically mainland chinese. Nothing special anymore or worth to fly to/with. I am sad I used to like flying CX before SQ etc. in Asia when flying regionally. Now I do not even consider flying with CX or fly to HK. Let us see what the future brings.
Been flying in 3 continents for the last 25 years in business class, sure CX is one of best airlines in the world. The upgraded business class seat is coming soon.

Glad to have you onboard! 😃✈

great review! Flying from BKK HKG KIX next week… looking forward to experience the J class
That’s amazing! Perfect timing to see cherry blossom. I’m sure you’ll enjoy the J experience - let me know how you find it! Safe travels 😊✈️
Absolutely the way to go and one thing I see with the meal it has improved from the 2005 version
Thanks a lot for watching! 😊✈️
Brilliant video, Cathay's definitely among the best in Asia among the likes of their main competitor SQ and of course their Middle Eastern rivals :)
Thanks a lot for watching and the positive feedback! Believe it or not, I haven’t tried SQ’s premium cabins - can’t wait! 😊✈️
Comparing CX to SQ.... please remember to take your medicine. Clearing talking nonsense

Thanks for the reply.
I just booked J to TYO from SYD on CX as good price.
They once were the most expensive .
Have a safe journey everyone.
Enjoy Tokyo! Let me know how much you enjoy the flight 😊✈️
Yes,I will.

How do you like BA 350's business class or Cathay"s ? Since i watched both your BA & CX review?
Thanks for watching, Tony! I personally prefer the Club Suite - it’s a more modern product. Also big fan of the sliding door but I have to say I really like the extra sleeping space Cathay Suite. What do you think? 😊
Can’t wait for the rollout of the new Cathay Aria suite! ✈️
Can I go to these different lounges?😅
You can! If you don’t have a lot of time, I would recommend going to The Pier. Thanks a lot for watching! ✈️
THANKS FOR VIDEO- HAVE A GOOD LIFE
Thanks for watching, Patricia! ✈️
I went Heathrow to Hong Kong! But only in economy class. It was the same plane as yours
Hey there! Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoyed your flight to London ✈️🇬🇧
What is the name of the song and the artist please?
Wonderful review. I have never flown Cathay. I wanna try their business class from Johannesburg.
Hey there, Sicelo! Great to see your comment. The song is A Night Alone by TrackTribe.
Hope that the Cathay flight from Joburg comes very soon for you! Thanks a lot for watching and leaving a comment ✈
Hi, may I know if a business class ticket allows you to enter both lounges?
Thanks for watching! Yes, you can enter any Cathay Business Lounge, and even go to multiple lounges before the flight with the same ticket. Enjoy! 😊✈️
@@comfytravels wondering if they have a time limit for the lounge. My layover will be 8 hours
Food and Entertainment. .
Great video
Hey there! Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks a lot for watching ✈️😊
being a regional route (3.5 hours flight time), you can't really fault it.
Flown business class 5 times. Worth it
Hey there! Thanks for watching! Which was your most memorable flight of the 5 and why? ☺️✈️
@@comfytravels i dont know because they were all the same route, hong kong to vancouver, have not taken one in years though
How is that view at 6.40?
Hey there, Matthew! You can typically enjoy those stunning views of Victoria Harbour from A seats a few minutes after take-off. Hope this answers your question 😃✈
How old are Cathay Pacific planes?
Thanks for watching! Cathay A350s are slightly older than 5 years on average 😊
@@comfytravels Thank you for answering.
Those views of Hong Kong from the air are outstanding. No city, not Manhattan, not Sydney. Can compare to the Hong Kong skyline.
Hey Derek! The views are breathtaking - by far my favourite take-off. Thanks a lot for watching! 😊
Sydney skyline?! Wouldn't even consider it top 20
fabric seats, small screens, table ware from premium economy, Nah. Not by a far mile
Many thanks for watching! What do you think they should improve the most? 😊
Definitely not Asia's best. For the best, you have to look at carriers that offer the privacy of a suite. ANA for example.
Thanks for watching! I heard a lot of positive comments on the ANA Suite. I have never tried it myself but hopefully very soon 🤞✈️
@@comfytravelswhy not? Singapore First, ANA suites, and Cathay Pacific First are must try’s for aviation reviewers!
Not even close.
I have done 2k flights.
NH and Jal always better.
J on CX does not load all meals for J and no choice at times.
Low status credits on 9 hour flights to SYD but at moment are reasonable price.
Also take care of their frequent flyers before high level Oneworld.

What I am going to say, the J Class is not the best, But I’d rather to say J Class in Cathay is one of the best in Asia.
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts, Muhamad! 😊✈️
Are you South African? I’m trying to pin down your accent
I’m from hk

Asia's best? A bit rich to say. There are certainly better Asian airlines than CX.

china airlines, ANA, JAL??? or starlux are some examples of better business classes
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! What’s your favourite in particular and why? 😊
Sorry, so boring especially "Guys" being used all the time !
I prefer SQ
Thanks a lot for watching! What do you like best about SQ? 😊✈️
