Cathay Pacific reclining seats

My last flight to Australia was with Cathay Pacific via Hong Kong. It was arguably the best airline I’ve flown with, if only for Cathay Pacific’s innovative solution to the reclining seats problem. Cathay’s seats slide forward rather than recline back, so if you want to sit back at an angle, you take up your own leg room rather than someone else’s.

Cathay Pacific Australia flight sale prices

Cathay Pacific’s quality makes it worth considering the prices in the Hong Kong airline’s current flights sale. British Airways and Virgin Atlantic have slightly better prices on roughly the same dates, but it is arguably worth paying the extra £20 or £30 – particularly if you fancy a Hong Kong stopover or are flying to cities other than Sydney.
