Need more info....

re: quote: For Kindergarten Cathay pay just 50% of the school fees only! Most schools add admin fees, school dinner fees which is around $2-4K a term. Do Cathay pay those? haha NO!

We have 3 kids and this is a breakdown of what we pay...



Appreciate your info. I am in a similar situation. Had been considering interviewing for the current Second Officer position, but understand now that it is actually a cadet entry type position.

Could you also give me an idea what you are paying for a mortgage? I have no idea what it actually costs to live in HKG.

I am currently on par with a US regional captain, making US$80,000 per year with 15 days off per month and living comfortably. But I have the itch to get international and heavy experience.

If all of you guys do not recommend CX, then where should I go?

I haven't found anything better!

Thanks for all of the info you guys have put on this website. May have prevented me from making a huge mistake!
