Where do you want to live? You can take a local package as an F/O now in HK on the freighter or S/O expat package on the pax fleet, you can also live in various places in Europe and the US as a F/O could be pax could be freight depending on your right of abode.

Your choice then...SO in HK or FO in Europe. I would pass on the FO in HK. It's on local terms which means less benefits etc. and a freighter roster. SO roster is very easy with lots of time off or so I am told.
after July 1, someone else will have to tell you the S/O package.
