Just a genuine curiosity!!
Cathay seems to have more time off with family etc but time spent as SO and fairly long time to command etc.........more a career airline perhaps?
Dragonair seems to be more a "work like mad" but FO from day one with relatively short time to command with the higher remuneration associated with such.
It just seems that the workload at Dragon is on a par with the lowfare airlines such as EasyJet and Ryanair etc, and I wondered how many years it would be until you were chewing toothpicks to stay awake!! Is it a longterm (ie. 20 years) career with Dragon or a ten year "make your bucks and retire at 45" job? I've never heard a bad word said about Dragonair so please don't think I'm winding anyone up!!
Cheers,
NP.
