CX considers itself a caring, well-managed company. You will live like a king in Hong Kong on the package they are offering, and with just 3000 pilots ahead of you on the seniority list, you will have your command in no time.

I have about 4000hrs of which 1000hrs is B737NG time. My main reason of moving else where is to work for a stable airline with a world wide network.

For QR
-Tax free income and good future plans
-Good overall product
-Doha is a nice place but still a long way to go

For CX
-Good pay progression through the years
-Been around around a long time , structred and organized
-HKG is better to live than any city than the middle-east at least a more tolerant place towards western culture

Overall they are similar only main difference is HKG is a better place to live in and I guess QR would offer faster progression and maybe more pay. But my personal pref is to stay away from the ME
