Just picking up a few details here (have been under embargo, and some more info to follow tomorrow):
* Yes, all-new A330 economy class as well, this is a tip-to-tail refit (and no premium economy)
*
Unless Ronald Lam last night said the Aria Studio will be on the A330neo, I'd rather not consider that as fact
* Cathay has not yet revealed how many Aria Studio seats will crown the refitted A330 business class cabin, which now varies from 24 to 50 across three different configurations. However, moving from 2-2-2 recliners to 1-2-1 beds typically reduces capacity by a third, depending on the final cabin layout.

PS Given Cathay now has Aria Studio as a non-doored regional business class and Aria Suite as a doored long-haul business class, I'm beginning to wonder if they won't extend the brand one step further with the 777-9 first class suites being called the Aria Apartment? LOL
