Cathay Pacific is set to enhance the Premium Economy class experience on its upcoming fleet of Boeing 777-300ER aircraft by adding 16 additional seats compared to other aircraft in its fleet. The airline has taken a human-centric approach to design a premium cabin for guests traveling on these new planes.
Since the introduction of Premium Economy in 2012, Cathay Pacific has made significant changes to this offering. These changes aim to make long-haul flights more comfortable for passengers, starting with adjustments to the seats themselves. Although the size of the seats in the new Premium Economy class remains the same, they have been ergonomically improved with enhancements to the seat padding, leg rest, and a new wing-shaped headrest. The LED reading lamp has been repositioned to the seat to accommodate passengers whether they are sitting upright or reclining. Additionally, deploying and stowing tables in this class has been automated with the use of buttons.
Entertainment options have also been upgraded, with passengers now able to enjoy 15.6 inch 4K TV screens and a new graphical user interface while flying in Premium Economy. Passengers can connect their own headphones via Bluetooth pairing for a more personalized experience.
For dining, Cathay Pacific has elevated the experience for Premium Economy passengers by offering Jain meal options and plant-based choices for health-conscious travelers. The airline has also collaborated with top winemakers in China to enhance its wine selection for these passengers. Other enhancements include two dedicated washrooms for these passengers and plans are underway to retrofit other aircraft models such as current A350s with these upgrades in the future.
Overall, Cathay Pacific’s commitment to creating a premium cabin experience that prioritizes comfort and convenience will undoubtedly make it an attractive choice for travelers looking for an upgrade on their long-haul flights.
