Landed at 07L but need to taxi a long way to bay 3. Review : There are some reasons that Cathay Pacific Airways can climbed up to the top 3 of the list of World's Best Airlines. Cathay's service is quite good and the aircraft is comfortable enough to let Cathay get high marks in Skytrax. This awesome flight has changed my mind on Cathay's catering. But comparing to other airlines, meal quality of Cathay still have a long way to go.
