I'm adding to the Aesop love. I have a lot of Dermalogica at home but after my F flight in March I'm switching some products to Aesop.

There is a duvet & cover available in 'old' F- the new ones are just higher quality. It takes a minute or two so I usually ask the FA to put it on while I go to the loo.

There is always a mattress pad as well. The new one is suppose to be thicker

Even though CX is just getting started with the refurbishing and hasn't done any/many planes yet, all info and pictures on the web site show the new style. There is nothing about the old and current style, amenities, or photos showing.

CX seems to have gotten ahead of themselves.

Or maybe you have, I seem to recall we had daily requests for information for many weeks before your last flight, right down to what might happen if we take off on the left runway instead of the right and do I get longer on board if the wind is blowing in the wrong direction

I think two planes have new F. If you look at the fine print on the bottom there's a link to information about old F.

You have a good memory, mayodave. But the daily requests for information went on for months before the flight. : )

Other than B-KPR, what aircraft has been refreshed? I'm tracking KPR every single day.

B-KQG- technically not a refresh, it's a brand new aircraft. Enters service some time this month.

So no more 77Gs for CX?

Can we give SusieSan a break, please? IIRC she was flamed pretty regularly for a past series of questions. Isn't that one of the reasons that FT exists, to answer questions for/educate people who are less experienced? IMO her questions are not unreasonable and she always asks politely. If you don't want to answer, you don't have to.

I came across this new F trip report on CX.com and thought some of you might be interested: http://discovery.cathaypacific.com/c...lass-refreshed

this forum is becoming toxic, and many good people have left. Thanks for sticking around to answer people's questions. You can tell who are the repeat offenders in here. I guess FT is telling us regulars to rely on the "ignore list" function.

I concur. While I was one of those critical of the question whether J pax could dine with F pax in their suite, I find it a welcome change to find someone so thoroughly excited about an upcoming flight experience. I find her enthusiasm refreshing, and wish her well on her upcoming trip. Plus, she took my advice and booked an airport VIP arrival service at DPS, so she's obviously pretty sharp

Versus the 747, where all seats have them.
D seats didn't have flowers in their vaces on CX841 Aug 2, nor hand witten cards from crew. Service was outstanding, but I was surprised by these omissions.
