Looking out at our aircraft, B-KQI, on a rainy day in Hong Kong. Oddly enough, the real B-KQI has only 6 windows behind the forward exit doors, 3 for each first class seat, unlike the 77W model in Infinite Flight.

Getting comfortable in our first class seat while the grounds crew loads up everyone’s baggage. Cathay Pacific is rapidly becoming an outlier among airlines as international first class becomes rarer and rarer. Cathay’s product, for what it’s worth, remains a bucket-list item for serious long-haul travellers, enjoying that same reverence that Singapore Airlines and Emirates’s first class enjoys. And they are proud of it, too. In 2019, a 1-way first class ticket on Cathay Pacific was every bit of $16 thousand dollars, with a round-trip being $23 and a half thousand. In return, you get to see why CX has long been in the top 5 airlines worldwide.

Another amazing flight 1930! The 777 300ER is beautiful with that Cathay livery on.
Fun fact: Cathay has one of the largest cargo fleets

Thank you! And yes, their cargo fleet is quite large and sadly unrepresented in Infinite Flight.

Love the pictures! I believe this unfortunately violates the rules of the Screenshots and Videos category though. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.
