Thanks for your support alexisonsmith.
I'll have to keep those places in mind for our next trip JVPhoto. MrsWT73 is wanting to make the CX F NYC adventure an annual trip so I might be back before I know it.
McNandez - CX F is pretty stellar. i've been lucky enough to fly both CX F and LH F. Each have their advantages. Sure, there is no limo ride with CX but the suite is so much nicer than the LH seats (my opinion). Food is comparable in high quality but in different ways. Either way, you'll have a great time.

Some of the countries that we've travelled, we'd have been lucky to have a Zagat rated restaurant, let alone chairs, cleanliness and hygienic food preparation. 
Hairpeace, our last experience on LH F was on the A330 equipment - in the older interior. A nice comfortable seat, but the Cathay seating arrangement of 1-1-1 beats 1-2-1 in my books any day.
