Cathay Pacific's regional Boeing 777-300 (Cathay's internal type code 77P) flies a two-class configuration with 42 business class seats in a 2-3-2 cradle recliner layout. Seats recline deeply but do not convert to a fully flat bed — this is an older-generation product than the lie-flat reverse-herringbone Cirrus on the 777-300ER long-haul fleet. The 2-3-2 arrangement places three middle seats per row, meaning window and middle seats lack direct aisle access. Personal AVOD via Panasonic eX2, in-seat AC power, and USB charging at every seat. Wi-Fi available via Inmarsat satellite.

  • Older-generation product than the lie-flat Cirrus on the 777-300ER

Strategic Seating

Best Rows
  • Aisle seats only — the only seats with direct aisle access in the 2-3-2 layout
  • Front bulkhead row for extra legroom and no recline intrusion from ahead
Rows to Avoid
  • Centre-section middle seat (E) — surrounded on both sides, must step over a neighbour to reach an aisle
  • Window seats — must climb over an aisle passenger every time
  • Last row of the cabin — closer to galley and lavatory traffic

How to book this cabin

Airlines may change equipment at any time. To ensure you get the 777-300 (773), always check the seat map during and after booking.

Look for these hints:

  • Look for "777-300" or "773"
  • 2-3-2 layout — three middle seats per row (D/E/F), distinguishes from 1-2-1 or 2-2-2 Cathay products
  • Cradle recliner with deep recline, but seats do not convert to a fully flat bed
  • Cathay's internal type code '77P' — the regional 777-300 fleet (distinct from 77W and 77H, which are 777-300ER long-haul tails)
  • Window and middle seats lack direct aisle access — only aisle-letter seats reach the aisle directly
  • No suite, shell, or privacy door
