JANUARY 5, 2016 — I’ve run out of superlatives thinking about how to describe my recent experience flying in Cathay Pacific’s Premium Economy cabin to Hong Kong and back. I had to dust off my copy of Rodale’s 1361-page The Synonym Finder to look under words like “best” and “premier” in hopes of creating a more exhaustive list of ways to praise Cathay Pacific for making 16 hour journeys in the stratosphere not just tolerable, but comfortable, even memorable. Click here to read how good the seats and service were.

Superlatives abound! Glad you had such a great trip.
Great review. Flying JFK-HKG this way next month. Great to read such positive thoughts
I was Platinum last couple of years with Delta, my travel experiences during that time felt like I was a silver. To make matters worse I dare anyone to show me any travel experience differences between a silver and a first time flier! So much for being loyal, Bye Bye Delta!
This is great to know — just booked JFK-HK on Cathay Dragon.
ALL Asian airlines provide better service vs. the US competitors (really, they don’t even compete)…have flown to HKG maybe twenty five times on a variety of Asian carriers and never once did I feel disappointed in the level of the service or the comfort of the aircraft..
4-year straight Platinum and then 3+ years Gold (reduced travel for my own choosing). Delta upset me so much, that I NEVER BOOK with Delta anymore. Trying to use up my accumulated miles (700,000) on some free business class travel and then NO MORE DELTA, EVER.
I think Delta is introducing this as Premium Select, FYI.
