| | Cathay Pacific First Class, Two Seats | It’s rare that we see two first class seats on Cathay Pacific these days. However, Cathay just released two seats on a bunch of dates in 2026 that could be perfect for a trip to Asia, Australia, or New Zealand. | I would move quickly on this one if you’re going to book. Please note that transferring Citi points isn’t always instant so it’s worth calling to put your award ticket on hold. They should give you 48 hours. | Now, let’s get into it! | Let me know if you book! | Nice flag by Thrifty Traveler. |
