Not sure what that means. I understand your point but I'm asking for specific information. I know you think they want to load up the SO pool with willing suckers on a sub standard contract, trust, me I can read all the posts. What I'm asking, is if there is any truth to the matter of giving new SO pilots, priority over others due to experience. It's a simple question. I'd appreciate any informed opinions. Thank you again.

By now everyone should know that CX's expansion for the coming year will significantly slow down, so will be the upgrade times for SO's. I am pretty sure crew planning is presently revising pilot recruitment targets as we speak.

The HKAOA received in writing from the director of flight operations that all future SO to JFO upgrades are in seniority order. Hope that answers your question.
