KQZ will not be repainted in new livery like KQX and KQY. Only earlier KQ- series will receive new paint job.

thanks mr.supakrit for the reminder and info. it has now been updated.

I have also made some other changes, including flight #s and planes operating on certain routes.

Cathay Pacific / Cathay Dragon Fleet, Route and Configuration Guide

For the table listing Regular Operating (Regional) Routes for Regional aircrafts, Japan-KIX, CX562/561 may be updated to CX568/569 and CX594/595 is now daily. Japan-FUK, CX510/511 can be removed. Korea-ICN, CX434/439 may be updated to CX438/439 and CX2416/2439 can be removed. Thanks

It seems that starting 28/10, CX522/523 HKG-TPE-NRT will be dropped and replaced by CX526/527 HKG-NRT direct. IIRC, CX522/523 was added when they dropped the HKG-TPE-FUK flight.
Lots of changes have been done to these fifth freedom flight recently. Not long ago, CX564/565 had its timing changed from overnight at KIX to same day turnaround.

Is CX struggling with its TPE fifth freedom flights?

I think the CX494 leg is wrong. HNB didn't fly it.
P.S. It's flying 709 now, I think the retirement for her should be in short period.

B-KPR will be the next aircraft to be re-configured into 77A, with 3-4-3 economy.

The aircraft may be fly to XMN around next week.

Can you please assist? How do you find out which version of the airplane is being used for a specific flight? I am flying on CX870 later in the year HKG-SFO and am trying to find out if it will have 1) retrofit wifi and 2) extended foodrests throughout? Thanks in advance.

I’m afraid that cannot be done, or unless one has insider news. It is only possible to check which version of plane eg 77W with 3-class or 4-class, 359, 351 etc.

As updated on 4th August,
KQC (16/7)
KQZ (27/7)
LJA (10/7)
LAR (23/7)
are in Xiamen for livery change/configuration update.
Please do keep an eye on them, and inform us if you have any updated information, thank you very much for your contribution ^

Thank you. I was hoping there was a list of routes that have upgraded, but I guess they can swap planes at any time.

What about B-KPU? Does it has a new IFE like A350?

mr.supakrit Aug 6, 2018 2:39 am
