Most people at Cx probably don't regret joining.

But there is only ONE reason for that. They have been able to make up for the constantly deteriorating payscale and lack of pension by using their housing allowances to buy property. The $$ many have made this way also compensates for the extremely long times to captain upgrade FO's are now facing.

You or anyone joining now will never be able to do that.
CX is quite a pleasant working environment. It's not about whether we like flying here or not. Most do. It's purely about the sacrifices you will have to make financially and In Lifestyle.

This has been said so many times. HKG as an overcrowded polluted place is ONLY worth it if you get rewarded for coming here.
