There is still no money. CA is still in control of our destiny. Wet lease is being rostered but still not yet confirmed (presumably because CA has yet to put any money in).
I hope Hazel250 has the wet lease wrong. Last I heard from crew mgmt it was 2xA321s plus an A300. Assuming 4 crew per acft that would mean doing four weeks per year in PEK. 2x 2 weeks would be okay, if we could choose when to go. But loss of housing allowance (what little we have) would be outrageous. We cant stop renting our appartments for two weeks!
I would advise anyone renewing their contracts to change the wording to "PERMANENTLY based out of Macau" for their housing allowance.
But then again, we could all be out of jobs soon anyway...
