What we know about CX3479

What flying HKG to BOM takes

It is a long-haul sector, a widebody route with a full night's flying time. Cathay Pacific needs a widebody twinjet: the sector needs long-range tanks and a cabin crew rest provision, which rules out most single-aisle types. Westbound, this route pushes into the prevailing winds aloft, which is why the eastbound leg is normally the quicker one. In daylight the sun sits on the left (south-facing) side of the cabin for most of the crossing.
