Well, after 12 months of planning our trip to Disneyland and Canada for a white xmas finally arrived. The plan had been to fly our beloved SQ but due to the cessation of flights out of Vancouver we were left with the choice of CX or NZ offering the best choice out of ADL and allowing flying in to LAX and out of YVR. In the end it came down to price and availability with CX winning out. It would also give us the chance to try out those infamous Olympus seats in Y.
So our routing was as follows:
CX104 ADL/MEL/HKG
CX880 HKG/LAX
AC571 LAX/YYC
WS257 YYC/YLW/YVR
CX839 YVR/HKG
CX105 HKG/ADL

Cathay Pacific CX104 ADL/MEL/HKG
B-LAH Airbus A330-300
ADL/MEL STD 1215 STA 1405 Flight time 1:20
MEL/HKG STD 1530 STA 2145 Flight Time 9:15
CX104/5 operates a triangular service of HKG/ADL/MEL/HKG. B-LAH arrives in ADL after its overnight flight as CX105 from HKG.
So now for the traditional leg room shot. The seat took a little bit to get used to and yes after so much flying it was a bit hard on the back-side but we certainly appreciated not having the person in front recline in to our own space.
Getting ready for push-back.
Video coverage of the taxi and take off from ADL.
Flying over South Australia enroute to Melbourne
Some shots taken whilst at Melbourne (MEL).
Flight left Melbourne on time with very smooth flying conditions to Hong Kong.
