Here's your clue - Cathay Pacific Airways to launch Manchester to Hong Kong flight | Business | theguardian.com

One of the largest bases!

I suppose it depends on how $h*itty and how close to the airport the motel they choose for us will be.

Given the trend, I suspect the answer to both these questions will be: VERY.

4 times weekly. get used to those 5 day patterns then boys. A cheapo place is being lined up in Moss Side. Bring knives and guns if u plan to head out. Our girls will be begging to go back to Riyadh.

I'm sure the shopping in the Trafford Centre will make up for it

:ok: Can't argue with that.

F me. Trafford centre. At least they will find out that Primark stocks clothes as good as any boutique around L'Opera or Milan.

Rumour has it that it's to be crewed out of Manchester for the pilots.

I wouldn't be surprised to see all the MAN FOs converted to the 777 leaving the freighter Captains to crew left and right seats on all freighters to Europe. That extra belly freight capacity on the 777 won't exactly help with the overmanning on the freighter either.

and all those freighter F/O's jumping seniority for a pax tripler base, time to get the popcorn out!

having said that, the pattern hasn't even started yet and we already at it!

Freighter FOs ??????? Bit out of date are we not?

Sqwak7700 11th Apr 2014 02:26

All right, another destination in the middle east! I love it.

:ok:

treboryelk 11th Apr 2014 02:32

it'd be just like Cathay to convert everyone onto the 777 and then onto the 350 in a few years time! Reality? if you're flying rubber dog **** out of hong kong now……you probably will be forever!

Not so much Middle Eastern as South Asian. Great place for a curry.
