Most former colleagues I know didn’t get passed the rostering before even considering the other pitfalls.
Honestly after 3 years in the U.S. on reserve at different carriers, knowing what your roster will be- is a luxury even if it is lots of flying.
Also HK is closer to our home countries so we actually saw our families a lot more than we do now (excluding covid times in hk of course)
The wife has been asking the last three years to go back as she did enjoy our life in HK a lot more. We really loved the hikes, easy to make friends and endless food options. Of course we know lots of things have changed but the grass isn’t as green outside of HK.
