My Cathay Pacific flight to Manila

13-Apr-2014 • Hong Kong Hong Kong

As expected, I arrived very early in Hong Kong just like the very last time I flew to Manila on Cathay Pacific with a layover at the Chep Lak Kok airport. It is after all, the time when flights from the US arrive here. It was so early, all the duty free stores had not yet opened.

This was the plane that would take us to Manila.

The gate was still unmanned when I arrived. I left and went to the Cathay Pacific Marco Polo lounge to while the time away.

The plane only had two sections. Unlike the flight I took from SFO to HK, the plane was smaller but way newer and cleaner. I flew on business class this time and it was pretty empty. There were only 7 of us in the entire Business Class section. From what I saw, Coach, was half empty too.

My seat, 16 H.

My welcome drinks. At this point, I could no longer eat nor drink. I was full, very full.
