Here's a better one to figure out..
If CX came out today and said Pilots mes amies, because we understand you work hard were going to be ultra kind and without even asking we're going to give you an across the board pay rise of 10%.. Aren't we thoughtful and appreciative ??
Now go back 15 years, take into account all from CX thats been lost or reduced (e.g. staff non-travel, housing, medical costs/coverage, schooling assistance, non-foc's etc.etc.) and last but not least - the pathetic pension
Then take into account; rent/house cost increases, general cost of living in HK over the last 15 years, cost of living increases at the home bases of those who are are non local but some day need to retire move home and purchase a home..
The person who calculates this will give you the real picture and one that will most likely want to make you vomit...
They want "qualified" flight crew but they want to pay Uber driver rates.. Read it and weep..
