Fleet Numbers

I have a interview coming up next week and was wondering if anybody had updated fleet numbers and future aircraft numbers. The info I have may be a couple of months old.
Thanks

The most update and regularly updated info of Cathay Pacific is Wikipedia.

Its posible that some of their rumours are incorrect but I their facts are far better than the Cathay website and also far better than those of us in the company....I have no idea how many jets and what their type/configs/engine are!! (and I bet your interviewer is unsure too - it changes every week or so anyway!

Have a look here some some good detailed info....thats we we look too!

I saw a recent pic on airliners.net showing a plane painted with "100th Airplane" or something like that on it.

True numbers

All - the best, most current numbers are in the press release (on the CX website) ref: 100th aircraft. They give the breakdown by AC type. Hope that's helpful.

Cathay only have 7 x 747-200F's, not 8 as indicated above. That leaves you 99. I think you'll find the missing a/c is a BCF still up in the TAECO factory getting "converted". Not on line yet, but they still count these.

Here's the best list I could come up with and orders

21 x 400 pax (+ some, see below*)
6 x 400F (+6 -400ERFs)
7 x 200F
3 x 400BCF (+HUR + others see below*)
5 x 777-200
12 x 777-300 (+18 -300ERs)
27 x A330-300 (+ LAE, & LAF the next two)
15 x A340-300
3 x A340-600

Yes CX "owns" 100 but only 99 are in CX colours, can you imagine the outrage if the 100th A/C was shown to be a Freighter HUR a -400BCF will be CX 100th A/C in CX colours.

I think CX actually has 101 now, as I believe another ex SQ -400 is on it's way to TAECO and will join the pax fleet with the new "Product" next year, about time they binned the "regional" Buisiness class seats.

Here are the 747 regos and planned one's
