There won't be anyone in position to answer this, as it is a new scheme and no one has been thru this so far.
All that can be said is that it is legally possible. Be aware however that if you can't show some PIC time you're going to be issued a CPL by the CAAC after you have passed the CAAC check ride, and will have to go for another CAAC Sim check during your upgrade process. The fail rate of these checks isn't exactly zero...

Couldn't agree more with CEA330Driver. Wally Rutledge from GABS is a stand guy who handles our interest well. Have been with CES for year now no regrets. Paperwork is slow though but that is government. Go with the flow and you'll get there.

RE SFO's, it is not a firm arrangement yet but they're working on it.
RE DEC's onto A330, it's a cruise captain position and after one year you can be upgraded to captain, subject to passing assessment.

Info from 777 skipper

I'm looking for some first hand info about the life as a 777 skipper for China Eastern. Could any active captain please let me know (pm is fine if you don't want to expose too much on a public forum) how the rosters/pattern look like, the way they treat you and any other important details one has to consider before joining?
Thanks in advance

Is this really happening with China Eastern on the 330?

Thanks
They're now taking A330 TR SFO's with 600+ hrs on type as cruise captains, assessment after one year.
