8driver,
I think you're missing point...
You and those like you want to give something away for nothing. At least give the AOA a chance to negotiate something better...
DO NOT give your consent!!! Otherwise, you are giving away one of the few pieces of leverage we have for negotiations. Is this a hard concept???
And yes, you will be doing the DAC-HAN patterns in HKG with correlating rest on both sides (read extra EXBs), making your time away from home even greater... So I'm not sure you're actually helping yourself.
