First it was 40 Oasis guys, now the Dragonair invasion commences! With around 40-45 KA skippers been given direct left seat upgrades, it seems there is no amount of free upgrades on offer in CX.

We are grateful of course, thanks, but I guess it won’t be too difficult, as most the line training will be with KA, with a rubber stamp by some compliant trainer to get our guys across with minimal disruption.

Seems the companies thought through everything, by keeping the line training away from some of those over zealous Cathay choppers, we should see our rightful B744 commands in a relative peaceful manner (yes they were stolen by CX ).

Bye bye KA, was a nice trip, but hey I couldn’t stand the fact I was stuck on the classic for so long, while others have taken my seat on an aircraft based in my country. It all sucks, but at least I will be a 744 Captain, I will have to thank CX for at least something! And I can give those Cx arrogant 3 bar types a hard time….
