New Advanced Entry Requirements

I noticed the website states 250 hours for advanced entry, but I received the following from Cathay stating 500 hours. Also, would having an IR then over qualify you or is it not an issue?

If there are any South Africans in this programme or who are flying for Cathay (be it SO, FO, captain), would you please be so kind to PM me. I would just like to ask a few questions.

Thanks in advance

Hi guys! I am a newbie here talking about cathay pacific. Just wondering how do they classify you if you hold the ATPL frozen ( with ME+IR, CPL and MCC ) and 250 hours of total flight time.

Do you have to pay the course or is it a sponsorship?

If you actually success and go into the cadet programme, once you have achieved all the requirements ( supposing you'll do ) in there, will you join the cia as a second officer with future options of being promoted as first / captain...?

Thanks you very much for your attention.

If you dont have a flying job and 500hrs, youre still gonna be ab initio.

I think there's a huge difference between the real LIFE and what you can read about their ideal training schedule on their OWN WEBSITE... what is more, i am pretty sure that you have read information that diverges as you reach their company and you notice its not like you imagined. ( if that makes sense ).

Anyway, thanks for the arrogance

Finding stage 2 mates

Please contact me if you are going to do stage 2 on 15 Feb

[Posterizing]

Nah they wont disqualify you for ab initio even if you meet the minimum AE requirements, but true that they would if you dont have a HKID.

Immigration Alert

There are Permanent HKID holders available for interview, possibly suitable candidates, but CX, without proper explanation, have declined to invite for interview.
