Cathay Pacific launches Chicago to Hong Kong today: Double AAdvantage Miles, First Class Bathroom Photos, Amenity Kits and More

Today is the first day of oneworld member Cathay Pacific’s new service between Chicago to Hong Kong so I thought that in honor of the occasion I’d share some links you might find interesting.

Earn Double AAdvantage Miles when you travel between ORD and HKG in First or Business Class:

Travel round-trip on a Cathay Pacific operated nonstop flight (booked under either the CX or AA flight number) from Chicago to Hong Kong, on a qualifying First Class ticket or Business Class ticket, and earn double AAdvantage miles

Cathay Pacific Asia Miles members can earn triple miles in First Class, Business or Economy class when traveling between Chicago and Hong Kong:

Travel round-trip from Chicago (ORD) to Hong Kong (HKG)
Travel between September 1 and November 30, 2011
Earn triple bonus Asia Miles on a qualifying First, Business or Economy Class fare class
There is no limit to the number of bonuses you can earn during the promotion period
Bonus miles are in addition to your standard base miles and class of service bonus
Pre-register for the offer online prior to departure

Cathay Pacific has published a Lonely Planet “Chicago to Hong Kong” guide on their website (be aware that the guide is a PDF that loads in the browser).

Wonder what the bathroom looks like in Cathay Pacific First Class? Here’s a photo from travel blogger Lisa Lubin’s trip report. Go here to read her review and for photos of the food, the bathrooms, and amenity kits.

Cathay Pacific offers entertainment on demand with the StudioCX service. If you’re lucky enough to be earning Double AAdvantage Miles this month and want to know how you’ll pass the time, go here to see the movie selection.

What’s life like at the back of the plane? Here’s a video tour and trip report of economy class on a Cathay Pacific Boeing 777 from Modhop.

If you’re traveling on the inaugural flight today enjoy the bonus miles and share your review!

    1. I saw that yesterday and was wondering if they would update it today. Thanks for the update and the comment!

  1. I think this is a picture of Cathay bathroom on a 747, I do not believe 777-300ER bathrooms are like this one, at least not the ones on HKG-JFK route.

    Cheers,

    1. Thanks for identifying it. Sadly, I have never seen the inside of the first class bathroom on any CX plane:)

      Appreciate the contribution!
