Considering how to tough transpacific premium cabin award space has been to find, I wouldn’t hesitate to jump on this if you are planning a trip to Asia. You can even find two flights with space for two on some dates.
If Hong Kong isn't on your list to visit, it's a great jumping off point if you want to visit Taiwan, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, and many other destinations.
Now, let’s get into it!

Cathay's first class cabin is arranged in a 1-1-1 layout so everyone has direct aisle access and a massive lie-flat seat. The bedding is some of my favorite in the sky. You can expect a solid meal and great champagne. If you fly out of Hong Kong, make some time for a lounge visit and check out The Pier.
Business class is arranged in a 1-2-1 reverse herringbone layout. The business class lounges are nice plus you can expect solid service and catering inflight.
