Checkerflag and Yippi,
Have any of you guys actually flown for CR? I know the contract leaves a lot to be desired but what counts is how they are treating the guys working there. I have signed what seemed a nice looking contract in the past to find myself used and abused. I happen to have a good friend that is flying for them and he enjoys working there. Particularly the schedule. All daytime flying and very few overnights. To the contrary of what someone wrote earlier you do get perdiems if you for any reason overnight. So they don't pay living allowance but how many asian companies do anymore. Compared to anything in North America (yes, I am taking cost of living into consideration) the pay is respectable.
You can live anywhere on Lantau for what they pay but it would be tough to survive in DB no doubt.

My point is that everyone needs to take everything on this website with a grain of salt. If you want you can easily find dirt on every company out there!

SMO,

I think you have been miss informed on the perdiems, I work for CR and we do not recieve any on our overnights. The cabin crew have to share a room, i kid you not!!!

I heard that had to share a room for SAFETY reasons.............wouldn't be safer to put a Pilot in there......I am sure TM would approve that for the boys!.
