Conclusion

As usual a very nice flight aboard CX. Seats offers a great legroom and a pretty amazing recline! Cabin crew were very nice and professional as always. Catering was excellent, and the choice was quite amazing for a 12h flight. IFE, awesome features, camera, lot's of movies, TV Shows, Music Etc.. TO and Landing on time!

HK airport is really amazing, so clean! Lots of services and shops. For 10$ you can get a HK Express ticket (only a 15min ride)! Nobody at the security check, that was perfect!

CDG is as always quite a mess. Only 3 passport checkpoint open for 300pax, shops and services are ok.. some improvement needed.

Thanks a lot for reading! Go watch the report for a great HK Bonus and more and detailed information about the flight! I'm also on Facebook go check out my page!

  • Thanks for this FR and this HK bonus.

    Again the service on CX really seems nice.

  • Thanks for this report!

    I went to HKG few years ago but through OZ and i was always curious about CX onboard services.

    And it's seem really good for food!

    Concerning Economy Cabin, configuration is 3-3-3?

    For breakfast, i don't know if i would be brave enough to choose this sliced beef congee :) :)

    See you!

    • Thanks a lot for this comment! Yes the cabin is 3-3-3 really comfortable! Well I tried it in a restaurant in HK, it was really good! sure it doesn't look good, but it's actually very tasty!

      Thanks again!

  • Great trip report. There are some really nice touches in Y on CX.

    Where is the shop with the models at HKG? I wouldn't mind checking it out next time I make my way through Hong Kong... although there are probably much better options for models in Kowloon or Central.

    • Thanks a lot! Yeah I resisted to not go in that shop in Kowloon otherwise I would homeless ;) The shop is in the check-in area between the two departure gate.

      Thanks again!

  • I love Hong Kong. It's such an efficient city.

    Even if I find the size of the trays a little bit small, catering looks nice.

    One can easily feel that there's enough space aboard 777-300ER thanks to the 3-3-3 configuration.

    Thanks a lot for your report.

    • Indeed! It's a great city! The 777 is so comfortable on a 3-3-3, sad that only few airline fly with this config! Thanks for your comment! cheers!

  • Nice report. I love Hong Kong; it's such a vibrant city and HKG is one of my favorite airport along with Singapore Changi. CX offers a very good product in Y and the 3-3-3 configuration is comfortable. Glad that CX hasn't given in to the 3-4-3 trend! P.S. Seems some of your boarding pics are out of order with some aircraft pics before jetway pics. Thanks for sharing!!

  • Thanks for sharing with us this nice report !

    CX offers a very good product in Y class and the 3-3-3 config boost the confort.

    Sad that only few airline have this configuration.

    Beautiful bonus of Hong Kong City :)
