ZurichAirportSpotter's video: FIRST FLIGHT Cathay Pacific A350-1041 B-LXD at Zurich Airport 4K

I've got to say, that is one good looking aircraft! The largest version of the A350-family has finally found its way to Zurich. Cathay Pacific is replacing the Boeing 777-300ER with the most modern Airbus widebody on the daily Hong-Kong-Zurich route. The new aircraft is equipped with 46 Business Class, 32 Premium Economy and 256 Economy Class seats, what makes a total capacity of 334 seats. One interesting fact is that Cathay Pacific doesn't offer a First Class as they did with the B777-300ER. Zurichs home carrier SWISS continues to operate the route to Hong Kong with their Boeing 777-300ER, which apparently offer a First Class, but no Premium Economy yet. The future competition will surely be interesting to observe. But for now, I hope you enjoy this video.
