Variant identity
Cathay Pacific uses this Airbus A330-300 page for 50J / 230Y. The seat counts below come from this airline-aircraft layout, not a generic aircraft template.
- 50J / 230Y
- 280 seats as drawn
- 50 Business, 230 Economy
Seat-map fields were independently confirmed against recorded evidence for Cathay Pacific. Seat codes, cabin assignments, row structure and cabin totals passed independent source verification. Spacing and facility placement remain schematic unless the map explicitly says otherwise. The map cannot render unless its seat-by-seat count reproduces the published totals exactly (50J + 230Y = 280 on this aircraft). Per-seat notes are rewritten into plain-language warnings for row selection.
