Cathay Pacific redeploys capacity

Cathay Pacific - About Us : Press Room

Should I be concerned about getting a classdate for a NA base?

This is actually a relief I think. I'm glad they aren't taking the North American approach of "Slash and Burn." NA carriers need to do it because the US has been over-serviced for years. Glad Cx isn't making knee jerk decisions on this particular issues.

Rook,

Nobody cares if you are glad. I think the guy asked a question in regards to a class date.

MilPilot,

Don't it will change a thing as long as you have passed your interview already.

As may be amended from time to time

MilPilot

Don't count on anything. If you have accepted, or are intending to accept, an offer of employment at CX, here is a short phrase that you need to familiarise yourself with:

... as may be amended from time to time at the sole discretion of the company.

To translate, it means that the company will unilaterally change anything & everything as it sees fit, including, but not limited to, contracts, salary, benefits, amenity kits, course dates etc etc.

Guess I will wait a little with selling the house

Better not to get a class date at all versus being let go a couple of months into training.
I know CX has never "furloughed" anyone, but in a worst case scenario that could change. Even the smartest management will not stand a chance if oil keeps going up the way it has been for the last year.

pardon me for commenting on the subject of the post. I did not mean to dismiss Milpilot's concerns.
