New CX Syd crew??
For those wanting to Join CX as SYD DEFO’s a few points to think about.
CX does not NEED you in SYD, they need you in HK you can expect to be given almost a HK roster with some extended breaks in SYD.
With the proposed “NO SO’ on the SYD trips you just lost a whole bunch of sectors which was one of the benefits of being on the base in the first place.
Also because you are not NEEDED in SYD and with a increase of 23 FO’s you can expect not only to loose sectors but do a number of PX sectors for which you will only get ˝ credit which will in turn mean more time away to make your monthly flying quota.
I am in no way saying not to take the job but at least come in with your eyes open as to the roster you are going to get. For those already in CX a basing is a lifestyle choice but I fear a SYD based FO will have very little lifestyle to worry about.
