In fact I have used the China Eastern lounge. Surprisingly, its is quite nice—nicer than the current Cathay lounge—and has a made-to-order noodle bar.
That Plaza Premium / China Eastern #77 lounge I think was actually better than the CX lounge. I was disappointed at what the PVG CX lounge was like.
Agreed this lounge is long overdue for a makeover. The food and beverage selection was terrible and it felt out of sync with Cathay’s other lounges. Particularly surprising since there are so many Cathay flights daily between PVG and HKG that are always delayed.
