Cathay Pacific A330-300 Cathay Business (Regional) cabin — **Cathay Pacific Cathay Business (Regional)** · Airbus A330-300Config 333

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). The cabin is configured 2-2-2 across the centre and side sections. There is no privacy door and no seat shell. Window-aisle pairs share an armrest with their neighbour; centre-section pairs are open. The product is materially less competitive than the lie-flat Cirrus II on the same airframe — passengers booking Cathay regional A330-300 routes may receive either product depending on tail.
