IT WAS NOT OFFERED THIS WAY BY CX.
My understanding is that there is no issue at KA as RA65 was just introduced unilaterally without penalty.
Perhaps the HKAOA should explore that precedent?
Farman - retire and enjoy your money and let the rest of us enjoy a normal upgrade time. RA65 will kill this airline.... want to see EVERY FO leave? Give these old folks RA65 and bye bye every COS08 person with any flight time..... RA65 instantly adds 5/10 years to any upgrade time. Where the rest of the world upgrade is 5-10 years to begin with, RA65 would be crewing suicide for an already understaffed in the FO level airline.
