CX Y Menus 2025
 
Cathay Pacific Economy Class Menu Thread for the year of 2025

Another year has arrived and I will continue to volunteer to organize the title thread and put all the information in some kinds of formats. Since many people always ask what CX is serving on a particular route, here is why this thread is set up. I know some of you don't care about it, but for those who care about it, hopefully it will be a helpful guide to present and future CX flyers.

If you don't want to type out the menu, feel free to scan it, feel free to take a picture from your iPhone and then email it to [email protected], I will type it out. Just make sure that you include the flight number and months of travel!

Thanks,
Carfield

Sorry this doesn't fit the format but couldn't access the other thread and thought it might be most relevant here: CX introducing a new Y/PE menu with dishes developed through a partnership with Michelin-starred Yat Tung Heen:

3PM departure
  • Cut fruit
  • bread roll
    With a choice of:
    • Chicken with mashed potato (shown in photo)
    • Beef with rice
  • Häagen-Dazs chocolate ice-cream
*****************
The gravy for chicken was tasty and the meat was tender.

Load was low and cabin service was beyond excellent. Multiple re-fills of drinks was offered and crew checked on pax multiple times. A very pleasant flight to start 2025.

Visually unappealing, but the taste of entree was acceptable. PVG lounge was the saving grace.

Cabin service was very good.

--------------------
Y was only half full. In-flight service was BEYOND OUTSTANDING, one of the very best post COVID. All ranks of cabin crew proactively offered multiple rounds of drinks and snacks (yes even saw ISM in Y cabin).

The only short-coming was the mid-flight meal service, which interrupted rest period of passengers. But crew explained passengers often felt hungry by middle of the flight, and indeed many instant noodles were served before the second meal service.

Very nice crew. ISM did come and greet and so it was quite above and beyond for him.

US HK UK flyer Aug 10, 2025 6:02 pm

Just to say that I'm finding the Y menu barely matters anymore because CX is *always* out of one of the entree choices for the main meal, regardless of where I sit in the cabin, on LHR flights. I felt forgiving the first time, the second time they even offered to sub in a business class meal, but it's become a consistent and frankly ridiculous pattern.
