Agreed, that is precisely my point, you are looking at the training length???? Who cares? You are getting your entire salary during that time as opposed to a training salary at KAL, also the training failures at KAL are high! You will not like the QOL at KAL as an F/O, you are talking about the training period of 3 vs 9 months but what about your QOL while at work after you get on the line??? Not taking into consideration that you will be making 3K more per month
If you were going for a captain's position then is another story but as an F/O? With no opportunity for upgrade, ever? I just don't know what on earth are you thinking! But hey! If three months of training is your sole motivation, by all means go for it.
