Cathay Pacific’s Aria Suite Takes Business Class to New Heights in Australia

Cathay Pacific’s Aria Suite

Cathay Pacific has raised the bar for premium air travel with the highly anticipated launch of its next-generation Aria Suite Business class. The airline has debuted this luxurious new cabin on selected Sydney-Hong Kong flights, offering travellers an unmatched blend of comfort, style, and cutting-edge technology.

A New Era for Premium Air Travel

The Aria Suite is now available on Cathay Pacific’s retrofitted Boeing 777-300ER aircraft, marking the first long-haul route outside of Europe to feature this innovative new cabin. With the aircraft flying five times a week on select Sydney-Hong Kong flights, the Aria Suite will become a regular feature on flight CX162 starting in early April. This is just the beginning, as Cathay Pacific continues to elevate its premium services across its global network.

Sophisticated Design and Unrivalled Comfort

The Aria Suite is more than just a seat – it’s an experience. From its intuitive seat designs to the refined finishes, every detail has been thoughtfully crafted to provide a more personalised and immersive travel experience. While retaining key features from Cathay Pacific’s existing Business class, such as the reverse herringbone seat arrangement and luxurious bedding, the Aria Suite introduces exciting new enhancements. Soft LED lighting, privacy doors, and wireless charging consoles ensure seamless connectivity and a tranquil environment, while the spacious cabin with a 1-2-1 layout offers enhanced comfort for every passenger.

Unmatched Entertainment and Inflight Artistry

The Aria Suite offers the largest entertainment screen ever seen in Cathay Pacific’s Business class: a 24-inch 4K display. In addition to providing a stunning visual experience, the cabin also celebrates Cathay Pacific’s connection to its home city of Hong Kong. Unique pieces of artwork, created by local artists, are featured in each Aria Suite, paying tribute to the city’s rich culture and creativity. This element of "Where Artistry Takes Flight" reinforces Cathay Pacific's commitment to delivering a truly exceptional travel experience.

A Strong Commitment to Australian Travellers

Sydney is the second long-haul destination to feature the Aria Suite, following its debut on the London-Hong Kong route earlier this year. This decision highlights the importance of the Australian market to Cathay Pacific. Frosti Lau, Cathay Pacific’s Regional General Manager for Southwest Pacific, expressed excitement about the new cabins, emphasising that the launch reinforces their dedication to providing customers with unparalleled comfort and service.

“We understand that customers are not just looking for a comfortable seat, but a space where they can relax, enjoy, and immerse themselves in the experience. Our Aria Suite is designed to do exactly that, offering the best premium long-haul experience in the sky,” said Lau.

Introducing the New Premium Economy

In addition to the Aria Suite, Cathay Pacific has also introduced a newly designed Premium Economy cabin on its retrofitted Boeing 777-300ER aircraft. The Premium Economy cabin features generous seating, intelligent lighting, and modern fixtures, offering extra privacy and comfort. With 15.6-inch 4K widescreen TVs and Bluetooth audio pairing, this cabin ensures an elevated experience for those flying beyond Business class.
