Business Class on Cathay Pacific
All it takes is a quick glance at what First Class on Cathay Pacific is like to start thinking that Business Class on Cathay Pacific has got to be pretty swanky, too. And you’re right – it is. It may not be quite as luxurious as First Class, but for most people it’s plush enough – and if the choice is between Business Class and coach, I think I know which you’d choose.
Cathay Pacific has upgraded its Business Class cabins, so it’s possible you may still encounter some of the older style cabins on some planes. Rest assured those are still quite nice and spacious, although the newer designs and services are obviously preferable.

Food & Beverages
