Pilot Shortage in Hong Kong

[Rie]

Just having a look into the SA aviation pages on Facebook gives a good understanding on the likely candidate for the upcoming DEFO slots. 99% is bad news pleading with people not to go. The others are the ones desperate that cannot make it into the ME3.

missingblade is of course right, as is cx management in their own right.

nobody cares if we are happy, all that matters is how many of us sit in the driver seat and to what cost.

And this is 100% correct, weather you like or not.

If I have to weather another instance of someone using "weather" when they mean "whether"......
Check your writing, you're supposed to be professionals.

You obviously have not seen the news with the shortening of quarantine times then? Most of CX passenger loads are at 98%

This will surely upset the doom and gloomers. They just can't/wont accept that HK is indeed opening up and it will get better.

Actually, quarantine is now longer. If you read the fine print the arrival day is now day zero, not day one. So in essence it is now 4 + 4 so 8 days. Nice little CX style bait n switch.

in some ways it really is 3 full days as you get out around 9am on the 3rd day. It’s crap but it’s better than before. Getting stuck for 21 days was no joke.

The government has a long way to go still but hopefully this helps spread all the new variants into the community faster.

"We are asking the government to urgently provide a clear roadmap showing the complete removal of all COVID-related restrictions for aircrew and passengers as soon as is feasible to protect Hong Kong’s international aviation hub status," the statement wrote.

Strange quote from CX when "evidence" shows its GMO & his pals who have been lobbying the gov to keep Aircrew locked up and under control.

With the opening up of HK, answer this.

‘I want to come to HK and secure a deal with a one day meeting…. How long do I need to stay? Do I get free accommodation if I test positive?’

Asia’s world circus.

Not really that strange, in fact quite in character.

These management types are all sycophantic (is that a word?) two faced snakes!

The stupid level of this post says it all and concisely reflects almost all the bare knuckle hangers on at CX.. A load factor of 98% on "flights flown" means absolutely nothing when PASSENGER TRAFFIC IS STILL 95% LESS than in 2019..
Cmon Man... it's embarrassing

3+4 only benefits residents. 7+0 is same for rest of world. So silly

Oi Flex, next thing the likes of FF6, veryoldchinahandjob and sometingseriouslywong will be rejoicing on here how the company is now making huge ‘profits’ as the 5 billion loss is down from a 7.68 billion loss.

And how we can all look forward to a 10% pay rise plus 8 weeks profit share across the board

[veryoldchinahand]

CL Rejoicing not yet ...but we have the Krug on ice !

[Cury Lamb]

Well get some more ice, in fact get an iceberg, because its gonna take a very very long time to pay back 39 billion loan + accrued interest!

[Rice power]

If the travelling public knew how mentally challenged the CX fan club are they would catch the bloody train.

They haven't taken the loan. They keep getting extensions. They have enough liquidity to go on like this for more than 5 years.

[Sam Ting Wong]

Jesus, you guys must be bored. So now I should worry about the repayment schedules of a government loan..

Agreed. What an absolute muppet post. I had to read it more than once because I thought maybe I'm misunderstanding it. Maybe he is a politician because it's the same level of common sense the gov uses with their zero covid BS.

[ToCatLady]

Bragging how this can go on for another 5 years.

Stockholm syndrome at it’s finest.

surely due another dose of “vaccine or be fired” emails.
