Cathay Pacific Cathay Business cabin on the A330-300

Cathay Pacific's primary A330-300 business class uses the Safran Cirrus II reverse-herringbone seat in a 1-2-1 layout. Every seat has direct aisle access; the seat converts to a fully lie-flat bed approximately 75 inches (191 cm) long.

Spot it

  • Reverse-herringbone seats in 1-2-1: window seats angle toward windows, centre pairs angle toward each other
  • Wing-shaped privacy panel beside the head — no door
  • Side panel folds up to extend the sleeping surface

4.6Lacking
Cathay Pacific Cathay Business (Regional) cabin on the A330-300

Cathay Pacific's regional A330-300 sub-fleet flies an older 2-2-2 angled recliner business class product, not the lie-flat Cirrus II found on the long-haul A330-300 cabin. Seats are forward-facing, 21 inches wide, with approximately 47 inches of pitch and a deep cradle-style recline (not a fully-flat bed).

Spot it

  • 2-2-2 cabin layout — distinguishes from the 1-2-1 Cirrus II A330-300 sub-fleet
  • Forward-facing recliners with cradle motion, no flat-bed conversion
  • AeroLOPA subtype codes for this sub-fleet: 33A, 33B, 33P (vs 33E/33J/33K for the Cirrus II sub-fleet)

Route shares are the share of Cathay Pacific's observed flying on a tracked route that is this cabin, resolved from flight history to individual registrations. They describe the routes we track, not Cathay Pacific's whole A330-300 fleet — a version we haven't measured would not appear here at all.
