Upgrade to CPT
Dear Colleagues,
I would like to ask for information regarding the CPT upgrade requirements in HKE and CX.
I am rated on the a320 with 1000 hours and I am interested in moving from my current outfit.
Looking forward to hearing from you
Thanks in advance

SimoFLY, whilst I understand you wanting to be a Captain as quickly as possible, maybe you should be concentrating more on becoming the best FO your can be. Know your aircraft and company policies. Fly manually often and join an airline you wish to retire in. Command will then happen in time.

1000 hours and you are making enquiries about command . Good grief I had over 11,000 hours before I was considered for command . I know it’s time and place that dictated when commands became available but get some experience under your belt before thinking about command . In days gone by Cathay wouldn’t even look at you for a first officer position with only 1000 hours

I know guys who have been there for nearly 5-6 years and still waiting their turn. UO was always the one that preferred DEC over any upgrades. In the past huge failure rates before anyone even touched a sim just to make sure they could keep up the DEC.

It depends on the fleet, but Airbus is certainly rattling through commands for anyone who meets the requirements. Most junior I believe is a 5 year CN.

Go next door to Air Macau. Upgrades courses every 2 months, as long as you meet 2 years in the company, have 4000h total and meet safe requirements. Salary as a Capt average around 15.000usd.
Not the best company in the world but managment won’t piss you off. Initial training takes time but once you’re released to line life is chill.
Crew management is total chaos due to lack of manpower on pilot, cabin crew and even on crew management side.
Theres a few Italians in NX also. (Notice your profile says from Italy)
