Yep, CGN and HKG.

Pay scales and more here on sister forum APC:

Since they have ALPA CBA work rules with trip rigs, duty rigs and the like, they get paid for more hours than they fly on long haul trips.

Like me, those FedEx pilots wished they worked at EK but they could never pass the checkrides or afford the cut in pay.
