Thanks for that, I’m flying to Oz, via Hong Kong with Cathay very soon! I don’t like the airline anyway and they aren’t anywhere near as good as Singapore Airlines.

I flew them 4 months ago to Oz for the first time in a long time, I usually fly SQ on this route, and I will always stay with SQ after my last experience with CX. Found the new seats too uncomfortable and the service on board was lacking compared to CX. I feel that CX is not worthy at the 5 star status skytrax gives it. However, a few months ago the skytrax website showed CX 5 star status as under review. But after a quick check it no longer says this sadly. My main complaint is the new economy seat, which okay I do like the principle that no one can intrude into your personal space; It requires I think around 34″ seat pitch for a seat like this to work and more padding in the seats as your backand other areas are going to be a bit painful after a 12 hour flight, then add on the next flgith and you are in agony after the flight. IO was and didnt enjoy it, so you can say ~I wont be using CX again on the Kanagaroo route, SQ is the best and most comfortable way methinks.
