I’ll get my coat.
What you fail to mention MC, with said Chinese contract, you go there with a completely different mindset. You go as a contract pilot, a mercenary if you will, with zero emotional investment in the running of the airline. You also fail to mention that they pay more than CX, you get a guaranteed business seat home with 11 consecutive days off (if you choose that option), all of which leads to a healthier emotional and mental state, which means one’s sickness events probably drop. Oh, based on the recent CX choice for SFO hotel, the mainland carriers hotels can’t be any worse. As always, the devil is in the details. I concede, going north of the border is not everyone’s cup of tea but don’t let the facts get in the way of your ilk’s CX propaganda.
