NO PIC

If you choose CS, be prepared to sit as a cruise capt. for years to come. Especially if you choose the B787. The Chinese capt. will not share the rest equally, your every move will be scrutinized and you will have no professional satisfaction at all. Come only for the money and chance for commute. Bases open and close about every 6 months as the winter and summer programs often change fleet on different destinations. For bases, or RSP they are called, do not expect fly back and forth as the other guy say, as EVERY time you have a medical, recurrent, safety etc etc they will use it as an excuse to screw with your roster (with two pilots this could literally be 6-8 months of the year). Resulting in KK (Positioning) back and forth, often in economy class.

My advice is to ONLY come if you really want the money, it turns out to be the only motivation we have in the end.
