CX would never shoot themselves blatantly in the foot like that by diminshing current housing allowance in one fell swoop...their methods are a lot more insidious, and already happening.
The press release they put out: "The initiative is in line with the airline’s goal of increasing the number of locally employed pilots – both on Bases overseas and in Hong Kong – and reducing our dependence on expatriate pilots in the longer term."
Never thought that they would admit it in black and white though....can't say I saw that coming.
Having opened up the cadet program to everyone and not just HKID card holders, how long before expat terms become a thing of the past?
Or is it alright to let it slide, just as long as it doesn't happen to me....who cares about the fellas who rock up to the door in 15 years time eh?
