Tornado,
I echo your previous statements and can't see a return to HKG in my family's future.
That being said USAB is usually exempt from these rumors given that they have not on shored it.
Many people have already given up HKG pax commands to take up SYD and YVR freighter positions and they seem like likely targets...yet another FOP mess. I think any thing is possible, who would have foreseen that we now only hire SO's with no expat benefits at that.
