this post has a lot of information. thanks guys.
not that i have a choice to go FO, but might as well ask NC: from what you see now, how long are we looking at SO upgrades to JFO/FO? Traditionally it's been 3.5 years. Seems like CX is pushing for more cadets next year (cheap labour maybe), any guesstimates on how long the SO "lifestyle" will be for someone joining early next year? I dont anticipate any changes to the 9 mths - 1 year of JFO time, please correct me if i'm wrong
cheers
