It's taken a long time, but the 'aura' surrounding the fabled CX job has finally been broken. It's now just another crappy Asian airline. In fact, worse than most, as is evident by the packages being offered by other Asian airlines that are in nearly every case better, and provide a better lifestyle. Never mind the fact that many airlines in our home countries are also very short of pilots and are hiring hundreds of pilots annually. Who in their right mind would risk staying at CX with such a proven bunch of management liars and bullies? Don't risk losing your chance to either join a home airline or obtain a much better expat job. Either way, both choices now provide you being able to live comfortably at home with your families. CX is toast. Well done Anna and Rupert. You can kiss all of our ass*s as you see them walking out of the CX door.
(oh, and Dilbert, you can certainly believe many are leaving. An informal poll of any group of CX pilots will be hard to find one who is planning on staying)
