Cathay Pacific has just unveiled new seats for both first, business, and economy. Hope you enjoy it.

The First Class, is like a mini suite.
The Business class is similiar to AC's.
The Economy Class is somewhat a bit different from what is offered now!

I must say, that's quite impressive. Now I wanna fly CX first class on a long-haul flight.

Finally ... I was waiting for the lie-flat seats in J class.

the photos include full-resolution picture of the business class seat, and economy seat. I personally found the headrest area for economy seat VERY weird. The plastic just give a very cheap feel to it.

I want now.

I'd love to see how SQ reacts......I think CX could have done a better job for the 1st class cabin. Their J seats are a huge improvement, but it seems to boxes, and it will be very narrow around the feet area for those who are tall. However, CX really impressed me in Y class. It looks like more thought and effort was put into changing the Y seats then anything else, which is a very nice thought considering most people travel Y. Only time will tell if this new Y seat will be a hit or not, but I am surely willing to try:D:D

SQ has in its plan to unveil the new F/J/Y products along with its 380. Since the delay of 380, the launch has been delayed as well. The new 777-300ER for SQ will actually have the new F, J and Y products installed already and it seems that SQ will finally launch its new F, J and Y products without waiting for its 380 (SQ's 380 will have a different F class again from the one installed for 777-300ER) - I have heard that the new products will be unveiled before the end of October. If the new 777-300ER will have the new products, then SQ will beat CX in having the new products first since CX will not start installing these new products before January 2007.

These new CX seats are cool by the way. Love the Y seats.

where did you find these photos? I can't find it from the news release section.

CX business class is really amazing and comfort for Long-Haul sector :cheers2:

But in-flight foods are served in slightly down-grade than previously

Not bad especially the first and business class seats :) They're relaxing especially if you're taking either first or business class on long distance flights.

I found really weird the seatbelts. Is there any new regulation about them??? they look like car seatbelts (three points). They look good. Eventhough I prefer LAN's business seats

The ottoman in the J class seat seems a bit small, doesn't it? I am not sure how comfortable that angled shape will be for a tall person who sleeps on his back instead of on his side.

i have a feeling after those are installed, the prices for an air ticket would rise as well...

7000+ for my J class ticket from JFK. Considering the business traveler is most likely corporate-sponsored, price isn't an issue.

$7000!?!?! hong kong or american dollars?

Emirates (A340-500 and B777) still has a better first class but Cathay business and ecoonomy look good

The seats are beautiful!

$7000!?!?! hong kong or american dollars?
USD$

The seats are cool, but that cloth pattern has to go! Whatever happened to leather seats in first class? Also it looks very 80s-ish in terms of design. They could at least have the seat adjuster thing look like a Mercedes seat adjuster thing rather than crappy 70s buttons.
