I would goto Dubai... instead of Hong Kong. I think GbA is the lowest pay in Hong Kong airlines.. Its a low cost startup airline, with just a few routes for now. btw no housing, no schooling, no moving allowance, no staff travel, no ID90 with other airlines etc. just the bare bone pay, FO pay is around 7K usd and Capt is a bit more.i expect 10K. BUT HK is expensive..with no other allowances 10K you are not really making any money, cant pay for international schools. so its married couple life with no kids. AIrlines in HKG has not the best management running the show.. its all about money for itself and shareholders... NOT FOR ITS staff..
Dubai life you get a better deal... |
Anyone have a copy of the GBA payscale?

PPjn is pretty accurate.. https://www.pilotjobsnetwork.com/job...r_Bay_Airlines
there no copy.. just heresay.. |
Thanks in advanced! I m Argentinean. The market here Is quite unstable. I m 35 and this Is my fourth airline, the only reason i moved from one company to another Is bakruptcy due to financial issues. Besides that, Is a great place to visit! And really funny and vibrant to live.
I am aware that the ideal job does not exist but i am searching for a balance of funny/OK city/money. Flydubai looks Like a good option as it Is looking for captains but i am sure isn t that Easy to pass all the exams. So any info regarding 737 operators Is welcome! Thanks to all. Hope you have a good beginning of 2023 |

Dubai life you get a better deal... "We offer a competitive compensation package to the successful candidate. Interested parties, please click “Apply Now” to submit your application".. Yeah - just like the little jesus child was born for real! Competitive for who - the company? Jez - what trash this really is.. Even the airplanes look like a cheap coach bus transport hauling plebs from one site to another... Yikes. |
Off topic: The people who "designed" the GBA tail logo must be the most unimaginative boring bunch of individuals around. A 5th grader with MS Word could have done a better job.

Wow, yeah you´re going to be part of the HK expat trash at those remuneration numbers - what a sad joke - please don´t even dream of bringing any dependents with you - you´ll be divorced and left alone shortly after arriving . Tough words of warning - well, you have been warned! Happy NY.

Wait until you see cabin crew uniform.. :{ jade green skirts and jacket with scarf.. looks like from the 80's. I expect the company logo etc is simple and cheap.. just incase anything happens if didnt work out...(I hope not... good luck I hope they will be around for sometime..:ok:) they didnt spend much money on the decor. wait till they do a couple hundred runs up and down China airspace... aircraft white becomes TAN... :}

Ouch :ouch: The Dragon boys/girls that went there must be dipping into their savings just to survive. Captain pay with 80 hours flight pay is about what KA effo was getting 12 years ago :bored:

Over a thousand of us have bailed from CX voluntarily so far, unlike our unfortunate colleagues at KA who were pushed (which was awful for sure), and most are super happy and wished they'd done it long ago. I know I am on both counts. Even CX pilots that I know who've stayed behind are dipping into their savings now just for the privilege of working for toxic Crappy Pathetic. Not a pretty picture. The morale of the story is Hong Kong and Cathay is toxic. If you go to GBA, good luck to you, as it's worse. |

I find it strange that many people lucky enough to have the correct passport/right-to-work keep thinking it's easy for everyone else as well to find a proper job in a proper country. |
