You’d be surprised of how many companies will NOT give you those even after many years of loyalty to them.

It would be better if you apply for your next job while in Hong kong.
HKE is a good place to obtain a type rating for FO that come from props, etc. It's free. Once you get the hours, think again.
It would be better if you do your research, but a good research on why having prepared FO they don't upgrade them, or on how many Captains have left the Company in the last two years, for example or how many Captains are searching for another gig somewhere else.

Looks like they are taking NTR individuals for direct entry captain with 3000TT and 1000TPIC or 500 Jet or something along those lines. Kinda like peach but lower TT req. Anybody have any details on the why and how of this opportunity? Regional captain in usa, 3100TT 400TPIC.

Guys, what is the upgrade process at HKexpress like? Can anyone share some details?
Upgrade at my company seems to have stalled indefinitely and if it happens it will be on 320 and not widebody, so thinking of jumping ship now.
Is there much difference between Dragon and HKExpress?

Probably similar reasons to yourself. It was a different time when I joined CX. Now I have the shackles of seniority and large financial obligations keeping me at CX. If I could go straight across to another airline without starting at the bottom, I would do it.
