Cathay Pacific offers one of my all around favorite first class products,when you factor in their food, service, or seat,lounges, and how consistent they are. I find their first class seats to offer among the best beds in the sky, or even though the product has been around for a long time now.
My one complaint is that Cathay Pacific doesn't have wifi. I realize wifi is an amenity which some don't value as much as I do. But as someone always on the road (or in the air,as the case may be), staying connected on an ultra longhaul flight is very notable to me. Cathay Pacific still hasn't announced plans to offer wifi on their 777 aircraft.
The primary reason Cathay Pacific doesn't offer wifi is pretty simple -- inflight wifi is blocked over Chinese airspace, and given how many of Cathay Pacific's routes spend hours over Chinese airspace,it would likely lead to fairly a bit of disappointment.
The great news is that Cathay Pacific will offer wifi on their recent Airbus A350 aircraft. And best of all, AusBT confirms that they'll allow passengers to purchase a pass for the entire flight, and presumably without data caps. You'll be able to purchase a pass valid for the length of the flight for $20,or purchase a pass for $10 per hour.
