After 11 years, I took the flight of Cathay Pacific again.
This flight is from Hong Kong to Taipei. I was a short flight and duration is about 1 hr 30 mins.
It was a sunny for travel, just missed the Taiwanese food for 3.5 months.

After check-in, have a breakfast in the Plaza Premium Lounge.


There are the draft of beer and the breakfast. The famous food is the fishball noodles,

Thank you for your report.
A Kosher meal seems bigger than a usual meal(Snack?) and interesting experience. How does it taste??
I would like to try it on the upcoming flight.
Sorry for my late reply.
A kosher meal is bigger than a usual meal. The usual meal is including a pastry, the shortbread and a pack of lemon tea.
The taste of Kosher meal is fine and have bigger portion than a usual meal.
Do you need to be a jew in order to have a kosher meal? Will the airline check? Thanks!
No need, you just need to place the order after purchase the ticket.
Thanks for the report. It's always great to be on a wide body aircraft for such a short hop!
Did not know, that CX has also only 9 seats in a row in Economy, hopefully they stay with that configuration!
Sorry for my late reply.
CX will change the 10 seats in a row in Economy soon.
