Fleet summary
Each row is one illustrative Cathay Pacific config. The illustrative exit rows and cabin products columns compare what that drawing stores, and you should still confirm both with Cathay Pacific. The aircraft name opens the shared type page. Seat map opens that cabin sketch. Best seats opens the editorial shortlist. Match the type on your ticket before you choose a row. The guide on how to verify your aircraft type explains that check.

Airline FAQ
Where can I find a Cathay Pacific seat map?
Start with the fleet table on this page. Each row is an illustrative Cathay Pacific seating plan and links to that aircraft seat map. One cabin sketch is the Cathay Pacific Airbus A350-900 seat map. The official diagram is on the Cathay Pacific site or in the airline app, and it can differ by registration. To match a ticket to a row here, use how to verify your aircraft type. Other types on Pick Your Row are listed in the aircraft index.
What does a Cathay Pacific seating plan show?
It is one original cabin sketch for a single Cathay Pacific config, not a copy of the airline chart. Economy sections on these cards use blocks of 1, 1, and 2, blocks of 3, 3, and 3, or blocks of 3, 4, and 3. Drawn cabins on this hub run about 280 to 396 seats. This hub lists all 3 drawn plans. An aircraft seat map is the sketch for one config only, for example the Cathay Pacific Airbus A350-900 seat map. The best seats page for Cathay Pacific is the editorial shortlist for the same drawings. The methodology explains the scores. Confirm the live plan with Cathay Pacific.
What is this Cathay Pacific page for?
This page groups the original Cathay Pacific cabin schematics on Pick Your Row. Cathay Pacific uses IATA code CX and is based in Hong Kong. You will find 3 illustrative configs, each linked to a seat map and a best seats page. Use it when you already know the carrier and want the aircraft we have drawn for it. If you know the type first, start from the aircraft index. Maps here are illustrative planning sketches. Confirm the aircraft and the live seat map with Cathay Pacific before you pay for a row.
Are these official Cathay Pacific seat maps?
No. Every drawing on this page is an original illustrative schematic. Pick Your Row is not affiliated with Cathay Pacific, and these are not the official Cathay Pacific seat maps. If a carrier diagram and a card disagree, trust Cathay Pacific. The methodology page explains how editorial scores differ from regulatory facts.
How many aircraft configs are shown for Cathay Pacific?
This page shows 3 illustrative configs for Cathay Pacific, IATA code CX: Airbus A350-900, Boeing 777-300ER, and Airbus A330-300. Drawn seat counts run about 280 to 396 seats. Open a card for the cabin sketch. One example is the Cathay Pacific Airbus A350-900 seat map. The same aircraft has a best seats page.
How should I pick a seat on Cathay Pacific?
Match a card above to the aircraft on your ticket, then read that seat map before you pay for a row. Extra space often sits at an exit or a bulkhead, and Cathay Pacific sets the rules and the fee. A window or an aisle is a preference. Highlights on Pick Your Row are opinions for planning, not a seat the airline is holding for you. Browse every shortlist on the best seats page for Cathay Pacific. One worked example is the Cathay Pacific Airbus A350-900 best seats page. Scoring rules are in the methodology. The guide on how Pick Your Row scores work explains the heuristic.
Do cabin layouts vary within the Cathay Pacific fleet?
Yes. These 3 configs already disagree on economy layout. Economy sections on these cards use blocks of 1, 1, and 2, blocks of 3, 3, and 3, or blocks of 3, 4, and 3. Drawn seat counts run about 280 to 396 seats. Aircraft on this page: Airbus A350-900, Boeing 777-300ER, and Airbus A330-300. Another registration can still change the cabin again.
Which exit rows are marked on these Cathay Pacific seat maps?
The Airbus A350-900 marks exit rows 30 and 40. The Boeing 777-300ER marks exit rows 30 and 42. The Airbus A330-300 marks exit rows 10 and 24. These row numbers are illustrative and can differ by registration. Confirm them with Cathay Pacific before you pay for an exit seat. The methodology page explains how these sketches are drawn. Exit row tips cover who should skip an exit and why a marked row is not a promise. A sample sketch is the Cathay Pacific Airbus A350-900 seat map.
How do I confirm my flight's aircraft before relying on a map?
Your ticket or the Cathay Pacific app usually prints the aircraft type, and the assignment can still change before departure. Match that name to a card on this page, then open that seat map. Use the guide on how to verify your aircraft type. If Cathay Pacific names an aircraft that is not drawn here, use the live airline map instead of a nearby type.
