CX AE SO

Hi, I've heard that there's a 'forgiveable loan' for transition training category. Does anyone know if there's any similar offer for AE SO? Many thanks.

Dan, I was being polite, haha - "Terms and conditions apply"
But seriously, anyone knows if there's anything for AE SO at all?

Forgivable Loan

It's about $500,000 HKD for the AE course but you can't use it for a deposit on a small property (which is what the company intended it for) because the banks in HK won't accept it. It will apear on your payslip as a loan and is therefor considered a liability.

Not very long but long enough to know I will be leaving pretty soon for a job where I can actually afford to have a life or maybe even someday buy a house!

Do not listen to the likes of Dan buster. He knows that our contract offer is near identical to his which makes him jealous and defensive.

Too be fair, it is a 6 year bond though. But the 50k and the shinny jets is enough to lure young pilots in.
