Customers travelling on Cathay Pacific flights will be able to enjoy the airline’s IFE system and high-speed Wi-Fi in every cabin on every route, reaffirming its commitment to excellence in customer experience and design, and its aspiration to become the world’s best premium airline.

Since introducing seatback IFE for the first time in 1992, Cathay Pacific has continuously invested in inflight digital innovations to enhance the customer experience. The airline has introduced 4K HDR, offering 4K ultra-high-definition screens and a broader colour range in flight.

Cathay Pacific customers can enjoy a tailored and world-class experience featuring a carefully curated IFE library with exclusive branded content. Furthermore, those travelling in First or Business class, as well as Cathay Diamond members, can enjoy complimentary Wi-Fi services on Cathay Pacific’s flights.
