A couple of guys left KA to join EK a few yrs ago.
The salaries don't compete. EK Skipper basic, 42000 Dhs = HK$88000. Add on 15% tax = HK$100000. An F/Os salary here.
Enough said.
EK will be hoping for lower paid HKA, HKE guys they won't attract experienced CX/KA guys, even if
swopping the pollution might appeal.
Not so fast.. EK is a no brainer for anyone at CX/KA who is not on expat terms.
HK$100K-40K-60K rent vs HK$88000+provided accommodation is an easy choice.
