For the first time in the past two months, B-HXA finally came to YYZ tonight. It is installed with brand new first class seats-seat like a bed. Now, only HXA and HXL have these premium seats. Don't know about HXM though (the first A340 from SQ).
The exterior of B-HXA looks brand new though it is the oldest A340 in CX's fleet. Is there anyone know if it had just gone through C-check or D-check?

Not sure what they are doing with HXM. Saw it two weeks ago and the rear section seemed to have nothing inside. Now they have cancelled the direct flights to New York so they may put the normal config inside.

B-HXN has been seen in Hamburg I think it was in basic SQ markings but with B-HXN as the reg.

CX are now starting the new Business class.

Hi Hkgspotter1, can you pls clarify - what's this about CX cancelling direct flights to NY?
or have I missed an important bit of news somewhere?

Due to the pilot problems (Well thats what CX say) they have cancelled all service to New York. The current Hong Kong - Vancouver - New York service now stays in Vancouver, however they will start the New York leg again soon.

The direct service that was to have started in September is now cancelled, at least for this year. So CO are now the only airline operating HKG - NYC directly.

Thanks Hkgspotter1, I wasn't aware of CX cancelling their nonstops in Sept - anything to do with UA coming off the route?

I don't know about the news too. I always hope that CX can expand their current services to N. America.

B-HXB flied to YYZ tonight. It looks like brand new, and is installed with new F-class seats. I wonder how come there are only 38 seats for the J-class instead of 40. Is it already installed with new J-class seats?

HXK should be pretty new. HXL is the newest and HXK should be the second newest. So... it shouldn't look old.

Oh really Red panda, then how old is this aircraft now? Well What i mean is it doesn't looked fresh, at least it doesn't look like a second newest A340 in CX, I saw part of the ceiling was fall down, and 2 lights were out.Maybe i shouldn't say it looked old, but it's definitely not look fresh.
