Any difference between any HKG-TPE Flights leaving the same time?

[sparoz]

CX has two flights leaving at the same time from Hong Kong to Taipei - Are there there any differences between the flights? I am looking at either CX450 or CX474.

Thanks!

CX450 is a 777-300 and CX474 is a A330-300

777-300 is a regional business class where as it looks like the A300-300 is an international business call (looking at seatguru) - I would pick CX474 for the chance of having international business.

Last year I selected a B773ER over their regional fleet and was op upped to First Class during the typhoon disruptions...

Just beware that CX are notorious for late equipment changes.

That used to be a regular occurrence when the 747s were used on regional services many years ago. Had a few op-ups.
