I had selected seat 18K when booking however upon arriving at the seat I noticed it didn't have a window.
- Good to know! Seatguru makes no mention of a missing or misaligned window so I will keep this in mind if I'm ever on a CX A333 in J.
Champagne wasn't on offer as a PDB but was happily provided upon request. I assume in respect of the cultural norms of our destination.
- God I hope so; I'd hate for this to be some sort of new sneaky cost-cutting measure
The fasten seat belt sign was turned off in a reasonable time frame (please teach the US airlines how to do this).
- I'm always annoyed at how long the seatbelt sign stays on on U.S. carriers. I guess it's a product of our sue-happy society--can't take any chances.
I opted for the beef noodle dish. It was not very good. Although the meat was tender it was very salty and the presentation was poor
- Yet another example of disappointing catering in CX J. I used to think CX could do no wrong...guess not!
But like you said, if you set your expectations correctly, and we all know not to expect too much from the catering by now, you'll have a great flight. And you did! With a great seat and top notch service, what else can you ask for. Thanks for sharing another great report!
- I haven't found my pause button...when there's champagne, I consume it :-)
Yes, please do report back, I'm definitely curious. I can hear that Moët Rosé calling my name already!
-Alas I paused my champagne consumption while in the lounge so I cannot provide a full accounting. I'll be there next month, and in the evening too, so I can conduct some research.
Great configuration for a regional flight. Too bad the catering was not up to par, especially with the saltiness of the dish.
Thanks for sharing this FR.
Nice to read this continuation of your series with a tour of The Pier which I intend to pay a visit next month.
-I'm looking forward to your thoughts on the Pier.
Too bad the catering was not up to par, especially with the saltiness of the dish.
-A couple of posters have commented on this too. CX might be developing a reputation for poor J catering.
Happy flying!
The lounge is so decent!
But I am doubt if Cathay can still keep their lounge service standard next year because they will change the lounge services provider with effective from May 2016. The current provider has been operated the lounges for nearly 20 years!
Hope the services level could be maintained.
That is very interesting that a change in vendors is coming to CX lounges. It will be interesting to observe the transition.
Thanks again and happy flying!
I like the food being served in the jars. I saw this somewhere else (can’t remember the lounge of the top of my head), but it’s a classy touch. The views from the lounges at HKG are always suburb, I like how they are a floor down so you get better shots of the planes.
CX changed their menus in August? The new menu design doesn’t look attractive at all. Almost an identical offering to what I saw on HKG-TPE. On to your point about champagne, I don’t think it is related to destination. I think it is the time of day (you also didn’t get a wine menu). When I’ve done morning flights with CX there has never been alcohol for pre-departure beverages or on the carts during meal service. The fruit plate looks really “clunky,” those are some massive pieces of fruit. The noodles looked good.
Nice spotting of the old school B737.
