Hi
We were booked to go to Hianan in October 2008 with Airtours / My travel, Airtours have since been brought out by thomas cook and they have changed our airline to Cathay Pacific, we were booked on premium but they have agreed to refund that on the basis that premium upgrade on economy is not available.
Having never flown Cathay Pacific before could anyone advise on baggage allowance, seat comfort, in flight entertainment and what free drinks / food you get etc.
Thanks in advance

I have flown once with Cathay Pacific from Hong Kong to Heathrow, the airline is rated 5* with Skytrax. I found the seating somewhat cramped and uncomfortable, I was served two meals during the flight with free drinks(alcohol, juice, tea and coffee) nothing spectacular but there was a choice. The service was reasonably good. There is individual seat back entertainment.
Baggage allowance for checked cases is 20Kg per person in economy with a cabin bag 22"x14"x9" weighing up to 7kg.
You can find reviews of Cathay flights on http://www.airlinequality.com and Cathay's own site is http://www.cathaypacific.com

Thanks for your reply and the useful information, I actually think we have a better option now than flying with My Travel even though we had booked premium.

Hi,
I wonder if someone will be able to help.
My sister is travelling on Cathay Pacific to the Philippines via Hong Kong. The stop in HK is for just over an hour and the flight number/aircraft type changes. Will she have to collect her luggage and check in again, or is it a case of get off 1 plane and get straight onto the other and the baggage handlers sort out the luggage?
Thanks in advance,
Rachel.

If she is flying all the way with Cathay they will transfer the luggage. All she will have to do is change planes the airline will take care of the cases.
Does anyone know which type of Aircraft is used for the flights to Hong Kong and then Bali?
Mobor One,
When is it you are flying? There are lots of flight variations. LHR-HKG is a Boeing 747-400 or Airbus A340-300. HKG-DPS is a Boeing 777-300.

Looking at flying out on 4th September.
Looking at Cathay or Singapore. If either of them have two seats rather than three it will clinch the deal!

CX254 LHR-HKG: Boeing 747-400
CX673 HKG-DPS: Boeing 777-200
CX252 LHR-HKG: Boeing 747-400
CX785 HKG-DPS: Boing 747-400
CX256 LHR-HKG Airbus A340-300
CX673 HKG-DPS: Boeing 777-200
Seat maps are on Cathay's website. All depends what time you want to fly. Personally, I'd go with Sinpapore on one of the A380's.
