Well considering CX and HKG are drastically under performing and have lower market share.
the facts are on my side.
I too am a CX fan and have been loyal for 20 years.
I just am not a sycophant when the data shows that since Rupert Hogg was kicked out the executives have made silly choices.

Cathay Pacific Unveils New Boeing 777 Aria Suites and Premium Economy
Cathay Pacific (Cathay) this morning released three videos and a range of photographs showcasing the new business class Aria Suites and Premium Economy cabin that will soon appear on its refurbished Boeing 777-300ERs. Rather than send out the usual press release with lots of facts and figures, Cathay has put together some stunning videos that share the design story and how it highlights the passenger experience-centric journey that has inspired the new cabins.

Just to mention here (although new thread already started) that the Aria Suites will replace first on the refurb'd 777-300ERs: https://www.executivetraveller.com/n...er-first-class

I just went back and re-watched the aria suites behind the scenes video and noticed this. Since this cant be the cabin between the first and second doors, and you can clearly see the last J seats are in front of an emergency exit, does this mean the J cabin extends all the way from the first to third door? thats a big ... J cabin for sure, and considering the increase in W capacity, I wonder where can CX deploy this extremely premium heavy aircraft.

I’d suggest the issue is more a lack of any quoted source, just dropping what appear to be ambit statements - naturally everyone here would welcome some sourcing… and with regard to this specific statement, I would respectfully observe that “even a stopped clock is right twice a day.”

Oh, another thing I picked up from CX this week: confirmed (just in case there's any doubt) there will be no 'Aria Plus' front row, like the 'business plus' treatment adopted by Virgin Atlantic on its A330neos and AirNZ's forthcoming Business Premier Luxe rows on the 789s. A bit more legroom in the bulkhead row, natch, but the seat itself is exactly the same.
