I have seen pictures of the new Economy Class and it looks stunning, but I am wondering which routes it is already on. Is LAX-HKG equiped with the new Y-class?

FYI, all 19 Boeing 747-400s EXCEPT B-HOO, B-HOR, B-HUD and B-HUG have been fitted with new EY seats. The four aircraft mentioned above will be upgraded very soon.

Does the new Economy class feature seats with greater pitch than before? If so, then what's the new pitch in inches? Thanks.

What was the original economy like, what is the new one like, and what are the differences? Thank you!

Here is a brief description of the old Economy Class. I'm curious to hear experiences on the Economy Class myself.

I believe seat pitch is the same (32 inches). The main difference is a newer seat style and different colours. Pictures are available on the Cathay Pacific website cathaypacific.com, and there are also two trip reports on A.net that has detailed pics (long time to download though)!
