Cathay Pacific have been busy it seems, and as well as new routes, they’ve launched a new Business Class Seat.

So lets do some quick checks:
It’s being installed on a lot of birds:
– On all New long haul A330-300 deliveries (March 2011)
– On all new Boeing 777-300ER deliveries (April 2011)
Rollout will then continue to all Long Haul A330-300’s and 777-300ER by 2013 – a total of 50 aircraft
The seat and the bed form out to some nice numbers:
Information – Cathay Pacific.
Long Haul A330’s will be deployed on the Austrailan runs, and the 777-300ER’s will see action to New York, Los Angeles and London.
Initial impressions are positive, and a welcome change from the Herringbone style seats that are currently used – however, the proof in this pudding is in the eating. And I bet flyers will be eating this up from March next year….
