its nothing to do with muslims...CX just does not hire indians, pakistani,sri lankan pilots...tho plenty of IT guys from india...

There are at least 3 Muslim Capt in CX, an Iranian-Canadian-American, a Lebanese-Australian and a Hong Kong guy + a few other Muslim FOs and SOs from various countries.

I believe there are more than 1 Local Hong Kong Captain and more than 300 local pilots in line as Cathay is local flagship carrier. Ofcouz we have a lot of Captains from Commonwealth Countries, and as per that term, I think they do hire Pakistani pilot.

CRM Facilitator last week: FO 777 and Pakistani muslim.
Thinking of a few more.
Emirates must be losing too many pilots to KA & CX... Now What can we say to stop the exodus?

And how do they know what your religion is?only way to judge would be by your name or nationality but that's not near enough.
