Guys, a great place to prep for interview is here: Hong Kong Airlines Pilot Interview-Latest Pilot Jobs-Latest Pilot Jobs

Also, the pay figures posted previously are correct, but that is at base pay of 50 hours. A normal month for me is closer to 65-70 hours. So on Senior 330 FO pay, i get somewhere around 14K a month. But living in Hong Kong, that isn't as much as it sounds. Lots of rumors about another pay raise, hopefully much better than the last one.

Or Dalton computers. Oh, hang on. He's too young to know what that is. ?!!
In all seriousness. Avoid HKA and the HNA and the HPA like the plague.

Heard that HKA is receiving 30 A320 + 15 A350 in the next few years... is that correct?

They have a kind of partnership with HKE?

Anyone knows anything about upgrades? Minimum hours?

Everyone has told you guys what HKA is like to work at, yet you can't wait to join the race to the bottom. Just like CX C-Scale, pilots will always lower themselves to accept sh!t sandwiches then moan when their breath stinks.

Interview tips? Here's one: Don't go. That's the the advice every seems to be giving you.

Otherwise, they fly A320's and A330's. How about you studying up on them and basic IR sim profiles. Shock horror! You might get a V1 cut and raw data ILS, just like almost every other sim profile in the world. You might need to know basic ATP / ATPL stuff. HKA is guess where? In HK! So how about you study up on rental prices, costs of living, etc of HK? Is it just me or is this all too obvious?

Friends of mine joined HKA before & after their 330's came. A few spoke out against the DFO's blatant lies and so he fired all of them from the same nationality in one foul swoop. "Trouble makers" he called them when he was caught out as an undeniable liar. (Eventually they ended up at CX on CoS 08). The management lied to them for years about seniority and deliveries, & still do but so many lap it up. HKA were placed on the CAD Cat 2 register for a reason. So where are the 380s, 777s & 350 orders that the DFO assured the pilots were coming / on order?

Seriously, some of you could be handed a rotting bowl of curry, be warned about the repercussions yet still eat it. Then moan here about your rancid stomach for getting what you asked for.
