CATHAY PACIFIC AIRWAYS BUSINESS CLASS

While in-flight amenities, service and entertainment available in Business Class are often comparable across airline carriers, the type of seat offered can vary significantly. Business Class seats can be categorized by one of the following descriptions:

We keep our galleys stocked full with a variety of tasty treats, from noodles and sandwiches to ice cream. So the next time you wake up in the middle of a flight, don’t go hungry.

We are among the first airlines to have put rice cookers, toasters and skillets on board, enabling our flight attendants to prepare freshly cooked rice, toast and eggs. First Class passengers can now go a la carte and choose their own meals and dine anytime they wish. Hmm, how about having fried eggs, sunny-side up?

Due to special climate controls inside the cabin, the best wines in the air are often those that are more robust in flavour. We carry a range of 40 quality wines on board – from rare wines produced in France and Italy to wines from the New World including South Africa, Australia, the United States and New Zealand and of course, we only offer you the top picks.

For those who prefer non-alcoholic drinks on our flights, we offer fresh Espresso, Cafe Latte and Cappuccino on most of our flights. We also provide Chinese tea in all travel classes to strike a perfect finale to your meal.

Air travel is generally one of the safest and most convenient methods of travelling. Millions of passengers around the world choose to travel by air each year, the vast majority of which experience no ill effects from their journey. Nevertheless, the popularity of air travel means that a lot more passengers with medical problems travel by air each day, many of which are unaware of the potential interaction of their illness with the aircraft environment. A little forward planning can often make the journey more comfortable, both during and after the flight.
