The Kavorka,
JQ FO (320) about 82,000 plus nothing
QF FO (737) about 84,000 plus hourly pay above 55 hrs (84000/660) per hr
QF SO (744) $61/hr for fist 6 months (not including PUIT), QF SO on 744 year 5 earns the same base hourly rate as a JQ FO.
VB FO (737) about $84,000 plus $10,000 retention bonus
CX DEFO SYD/MEL/ADL base $135,000 plus Oz Tax
CX SO wage HK base about HKD$380,000 plus HKD$14,000-26,000 housing allowance, take payable is very little.
A year 1 QF SO will have a higher priority than a 10 year JQ capt on staff travel.
As for choice, if you had one it would be CX, but with your attitude on here ....
