The real bottom line is that numerous pilots would not owe as much in total tax obligation by being domiciled in Hong Kong as they would if they lived in the US. And the company is going to pocket the difference. The company is not denying this in their propaganda, but they aren't openly acknowledging it either. They CERTAINLY aren't spelling out just how many would be better off based in HKG without the equalization.

Anyone else find this interesting?

So how do those of you who plan to bid HKG feel about subsidizing the tax burden of those folks in CDG?
