Jump to postIt was always my interpretation that HKG-LAX wasn't that lucrative so I'm not sure Well its must been lucrative enough for CX to operate it 4x daily ! or maybe this is the strategy between CA/CX , they don't code share but they are 20-30% in between each other share.

absolutely disappointed, cx has the best economy seating on their 773ER , even on the middle seat at least 10 times on their 10+ hours flights, they are still far better than many competitors. at the end of the day it's all about business and profits, passengers will be the one suffer on those ultra...
Jump to postcongratulations to CX , after three months or more delay with the new seats, will they catch up to original delivery schedule? 11-12 A359 for 2016 expansions or old aircraft replacement?

Jump to postit will be better for cx to send the new paint scheme back to the drawing board, so far their youtube channel are 50/50 like/dislikes.. , their 772 will stay in fleet until they will have enough airplane that will replace them on regional flying, assuming A350 or more A330.
