What will CX "update" next?
 
They changed the branding/ logo and more recently the livery.

They introduced a new lounge design.

Are they going to change the FA uniforms? It crossed my mind as some people have pointed out that the color red does not feature anymore on the logo and livery.

I know a lot of you will mention that they need to fix the inflight catering first - and I do agree that this is more urgent than a uniform update. But curious nonetheless what's next in their ongoing "image refresh."

With lots of fare classes now earning little to no miles/TP's, I wonder how long it will take for checked baggage limitations to come our way.

So going BA's way of HBO fares?

If so it wouldn't be a bad thing for my regional hops!

The HBO fare will be the same as the luggage-inclusive fare now http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/catha...l#post26714601

BA has a 23kg hand baggage weight limit (as opposed to CX's 7kg?). They better bump up the weight allowance if they were to have HBO fares...

Wrong link?

Hopefully they introduce a complete cabin overhaul when the 779s start arriving in 2020-2021. The current refresh is good enough to bridge that gap but I think it's time the J seat gets redone especially if their moving further away from F. I'd like to see them market J in the future more as an "F lite" with a hard product that reflects that.

Not-so-subtle suggestions here http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/catha...oking-old.html

No, the AC Rouge service for the same price as previous AC mainline is comparable.

CX could consider getting oneworld to update their website with their new logo.

Interesting point.

I looked at the CX site and in the upper right corner it said one thing, the lower left, something else (first 2 images). And the 3rd image below is from the OW site.

Some consistency is needed, perhaps.

I suspect this is because the change to Cathay dragon hasn't formally taken place yet. The link at the top of the page is just to tell you about the change but all branding onboard and online hasn't changed yet.

It's about time to update the priority baggage tags to align with the new branding. How many tags with old logo do they have in stock!?

I also have multiple colors of the regular tags. At least the dark green stood out. What's with this beige thing?

Regular tags as in those where you write your name and address? Is the beige option new? I've only seen dark green ones.
