xwindldg,
I hate to burst your bubble, but an end to CC/TB does not lead to a promotion bonanza!
The company is quite content to grow at a glacial pace, in particular due HKIA operational constraints. They have also realised considerable cost savings in 2 x SO ops (one example) so, sadly, that is here to stay. Similarly, crewing efficiencies via the CMP - fewer crew needed.
So it’s going to be 5 years to FO, and 12 -15 years to command, just like many other legacy airlines.
I sure hope people don’t vote for an inferior agreement in the mistaken belief they’ll suddenly see a promotion.
