Cathay pay everyone the same rate in US dollars I believe.

This is why the Aussie bases are hurting right now with the increase in the Aussie dollar (or more realistically the decrease of the US dollar).
Incorrect. CX pays what they believe is market rates in all their bases. It isn’t linked to the US$ in any way. It is infact the HK base that is hurting the most compared to Aus in salary scales because the HK$ is pegged to the US$ and my pay in AU$ is now less than my Aussie based colleagues even after tax.
