New York JFK to Hong Kong

Cathay Pacific CX845 | JFK/HKG
Business Class
Boeing 777-300ER
Lounge: British Airways Terraces Lounge

I had a long wait of about 4 hours in the British Airways lounge which Cathay Pacific contracts with. It was a pleasant lounge but there wasn't anything substantial to eat.

HKG/JFK was the third longest commercial airline flight in the world at the time at almost 16 hours. It was my first transpolar flight, and my first on a 777-300ER. This was also my first time in the much maligned high walled Business Class in the herringbone layout. Detractors claim that the seat is like a coffin. Overall, I didn't think it was as bad as people said it was. I liked the privacy, but it was felt very open from the aisle, and it was odd to face away from the window. There was also very little storage space.Baca selengkapnya
