This is the continuation of my inbound Melbourne to Hong Kong business class flight on Cathay Pacific. This sector sees me fly First Class from Hong Kong to Paris on a Boeing 777-300ER.

When I originally booked my flights, the MEL - HKG sector was flown by a A350 but last minute equipment change saw it replaced by a B777.

Funnily enough, the aircraft which brought me from Melbourne is the EXACT same aircraft which will take me Paris.

Flight # : CX261
Registration: B-KQG
Manufacture Date: 3rd August, 2013
ETD: 11:00pm
ATD: 11:15pm
ETA : 7:00am
ATA : 6:26am

Maximum Altitude : 36,000 feet
Maximum Speed : 523 knots

I am truly lucky and blessed that I have the opportunity to fly first class and am fully aware of the privilege of having flown many other airlines in first, suites and apartments.

So, believe me when I say that the crew and catering on this flight not only exceeded my expectations but set the new benchmark for my understanding of what represents the highest level of premium customer experience.

The crew could not have done any more for all the first class passengers. However, they were not prescriptive, they were not robotic. They used their initiative and showed a genuine love of their job.

This was the very first time I ever flew with Cathay Pacific (inc the Melbourne sector as all ticketed as a single flight) but will definitely NOT be the last. In fact, I will endeavour to find any and all opportunity to fly them more frequently.

I've already published a video of the entire 56 hour journey from Melbourne to Hong Kong in Cathay Pacific Business class, 17hr transit in Hong Kong Airport, First class from Hong Kong to Paris, and then the Eurostar from Paris to London. That video is over 1hr long and is mainly focussed on the food and travel experience.

Today's video is more focused on the hard and soft offering from Cathay Pacific in Business Class on their 777-300ER Variant 4.

Based in Melbourne, Australia, I watch too much TV, eat and drink too much to be a productive member of society. I have an insatiable craving to taste, smell and enjoy everything life has in store for me.

I have been bitten by the wanderlust bug and find nothing more thrilling than packing my bag and jumping on a plane to any far flung destination.

A huge thanks for watching. Please subscribe, like and comment. Let us know how we can improve so we can continue producing engaging content.
