right decision
Eternity,
Congrats to your decision - you made the right one... When I was accepted at CX I was about your age, had similar hours and flew a similar aircraft BUT there was no way I would have joined under the current conditions on offer. I already had a few mates in CX and I couldn't have lived the with fact knowing they make double what I would have made with the iCadet transition gig for doing the same job.
You certainly got one thing right - if you leave home to become an expat it has to be worth it; you never leave to go overseas to make less money!!!
