CATHAY PACIFIC A350-900 BUSINESS: SIN-HKG via BKK - Worth the stop?

[@madamebkrt]

I flew Cathay last month SYD - HKG - LHR and then back again on both the a350-900 and -1000. Really enjoyed it. Great crews, great FAs and the IFE was very good.

[@Aviation763]

Awesome! I’m glad to hear that!

[@ben7k]

Great video! Looks like you picked the best seat in the mini cabin right at the back. Being right next to the engine is a bonus too. It would have been interesting to stay on board during the turn around in Bangkok, its not something you usually see as a passenger. Last time I flew into Hong Kong (CX regional A330) we parked at a remote stand, from there the bus dropped us at a bus gate (500-504) and I had to go to gate 49 for my connecting flight which is about as far apart as you can get at Hong Kong. According to google maps the distance is about 1.4km, so yes it's a huge airport. Thankfully I had a reasonable connection time, but I remember some of the other passengers were quite anxious about missing connections while waiting for the busses and in the slow queue getting through security.

[@Aviation763]

Thank you! Yeah it was super interesting! Oh wow... well im glad you made it!

[@AvgeekA380]

Your videos are wonderful! How many flight reviews have you made already to achieve such high quality, and how do you fly so much? If you don't mind sharing, what equipment do you use to film these videos? Keep it up!

[@Aviation763]

Thank you so much! I’m so happy to hear you think so! Almost 200 which is crazy to think about even though it’s been years. For the most part I just use my iPhone 15 Pro. I will! Thanks again! 😃

[@Enviro-rc3md]

0:57 T4 is for budget airlines but some full service airlines also operate there like Cathay Pacific but mostly budget carriers operate there

[@Aviation763]

It does have a lot of budget-airline flights yeah

[@AshtonTolley]

next time you come to australia you should fly from Melbourne to Mount Gambier, theres no trip reports on youtube and if you do a trip report for that flight it would be the first. Thanks and nice video!

[@Aviation763]

If I'm looking to do a regional trip I'll consider that! Thanks for the suggestion! Thanks!

[@nonsensu13]

19:45 Judging from the color, my guess is probably one of Thai Airways' signature drinks, tamarind tea. Cathay uses THAI Catering at BKK, so that's probably where they got it from.

[@Aviation763]

Ahhhh okay that would make sense. Thank you so much for the info!

[@SeahHoongTeh]

Hi! Just a kind suggestion. Would u mind to make a trip report for a Japanese airline if u had a chance? Thank u so much

[@Aviation763]

Hi! Thanks for you're suggestion! I would love too, it's high on my list but it is quite expensive. Hopefully next year!

[@louiseleonard1992]

Very nice love it so much

[@Aviation763]

Thank you so much!

[@kevin19358]

16:36 and 22:11, That's the same runway I was flying Vietjet, Airbus A321 to Ho Chi Minh that I flew for the 1st time last year at the end of May, flight is good and okay, 1 hour, it's cheap a good choice to fly on short haul, but nothing special.

[@Aviation763]

Cool! Thanks for sharing!

[@ZaidTransportAdventures]

Nicee trip 😃

[@Aviation763]

Thank you!

[@brandonli3843]

Is it safe to have the egrets at the airport and also, do passengers disembark on the opposite direction?

[@Aviation763]

I guess so, and I think arriving passengers disembark and stay on the lower level

[@aviation405]

Another awesome review mate

[@Aviation763]

Thank you!

[@kevin19358]

14:38, Same when I flew Singapore, Airbus A350-900 from Barcelona to Milan on the 5th freedom flight for the 1st time last year in June, flight is less than 1 and a half hours, it's good and okay, about 25% of the passengers, including my family and I disembark, while 75% of the passengers are continuing to Singapore, wow, 1 way, I pay 50 Euros, it's quite cheap.

[@Aviation763]

Cool! Yeah that is quite cheap, especially for SQ!

[@kevin19358]

It is. Yes.

[@kevin19358]

Is that your 1st time flying Cathay's 5th freedom flight from Singapore to Bangkok and on the actual 5th freedom flight for the 1st time (I am referring if you flew the 5th freedom flight for the 1st time), if so, how is it and did you like it?

[@Aviation763]

My first time on a Cathay 5th freedom flight but I dont think my first on any 5th freedom flight. It was amazing thanks!

[@kevin19358]

I see.

[@StaticIsBarelyAPilot]

nice vid, do you travel alone?

[@Aviation763]

Thanks! Sometimes but I'd say more commonly not

[@NNotSwiss]

Would this be considered a 5th freedom flight?

[@Aviation763]

I think the SIN-BKK leg probably would, but as I said in the video I'm not too sure on how that works

[@Owen_Aviation24]

Niceee

[@Aviation763]

Thanks!

[@Aviation_photographer56]

Guys wake up aviation 763 just uploaded the best video like all ways

[@Aviation763]

Thank you so much haha

[@danielh58]

I didn't know that you can stay on the aircraft😮

[@Aviation763]

Well I was able to so I guess you can unless they change something

[@SonyaGayle]

The kislux looks still good and 1/10 the price of real one. So many people will choose fake. Since during u walk in mall or on the street no1 will stop u and check ur bag from 5cm distance to see these differences. These differences are mostly impossible to see from more than 1-2m away. And be honest. 95% of these people buy these stuffs only to pretend fancy,rich during a walk

[@Aviation763]

wdym by kislux?

[@Yotrixpofficial]

Wow

[@Aviation763]

What’s wow?

[@Yotrixpofficial]

@@Aviation763it means good

[@juniorlmx7794]

Was the same plane in both flights?

[@Aviation763]

Yeah it was

[@AryaanSrivastava-p8h]

Well, sadly, there is a probability that Cathay Pacific is not my favorite A350 operator anymore. Why? Another A350 operator, Singapore Airlines, the most iconic for the Aircraft types has different A350 configurations and Singapore Airlines is going 200% beyond expectations with its overall performance and its Airbus A350s.

[@Aviation763]

Yeah Cathay does have a great offering on its A350s, but so do many other airlines. I haven't flown on SQs A350 in Business Class but from what I've seen the long-haul variation looks amazing!

[@JBGamer90]

Fly on a fly from Brisbane to Dallas

[@Aviation763]

I'll keep your suggestion in mind!

[@christopherstacey9229]

Review Philippine airlines

[@Aviation763]

I published 2 reviews on PAL around the start of this year, they're in a different style but still :D I would like to give them another chance at some point though

[@Sg_aviation]

thai business is not bad and its not to expensive

[@Aviation763]

Yeah I’d like to try it one day, but I got an amazing deal with Cathay
