GMIMA.

The Pay is good
The aircraft are ok ( some new,some old)
The routes are ok ( China can be a total nightmare)
Overnights. Average ( mostly in China, Hotels generally OK)
Rosters are stable ( you can make and usually get requested days off, plus
there are lifestyle rostering Weekends off, earlies, lates)
Leave is Fantastic (10 weeks a year)
Training. Some good, some bad. Command upgrades are a joke, but general
stuff not bad.
Extras. Not bad. But I think you miss out on some of them in the new package
Job Satisfaction?? Ok ish

Hong Kong? It's a mixed bag. On the down side. It's crowded, polluted and housing is expensive. On the upside it's safe, easy to get around, you don't have to speak the language. Very easy to live here as an expat. It's not too far from any other place you want to visit.

Weigh it all up.

There are not many guys leaving so that generally means the sand isn't any greener if you know what I mean
