The first half of 2020 will also see the debut of Cathay Pacific's Airbus A321neo – to be flown by its regional sibling Cathay Dragon – and a new regional business class seat.
However, the Oneworld member airline is not expected to radically depart from the same 'premium economy-like' design as its current regional business class, which began flying in January 2013 and borrowed some elements from an angled lie-flat or ‘sloping sleeper’ seat to weave them into the more conventional form of a recliner.
“I think it will be most likely reclinable because it is a narrow-body aircraft,” tips Vivian Lo, Cathay Pacific’s Head of Customer Experience & Design. “Basically we're still seeing the majority of the flights are below two hours, stretched to four and at most six" – flight durations which Lo suggests do not require the lie-flat luxury of a business class bed.
The A321neo fleet will see Cathay Dragon retire its ageing A320 jets, with both a larger passenger capacity to cater for popular destinations such as Beijing and Shanghai, and a longer range to extend the network's reach.
