I have read the thread with interest as my spouse is interviewing with CX.
We will be in position to be on the reduced salary with the cadet training, thanks for detailing previously what all this really means.
What seemed like a golden opportunity may no longer be, but for a pilot who is getting older, due to late start to flying career and having to work to save for the training it is getting low on options.
I have a well paid job but would have to quit this if we make the move.
After years of applying to airlines this is the first bite, and now I know why.
I am so disappointed for my partner who really does love to fly, but also has family to provide for which seems nearly impossible on the new salary scale.
My spouse isnt a young single person with years to wait to progress nor could I see there would be much stimulation from the the flying if what I read is also correct, not much chance to get much hands flying.
Does anyone have any advice from spouses who are in similar situation and making it work in Hong Kong?
