That only applies if they are positioning him to a port other than his base and he gets a ticket on his own from FCO to the port he is required to report to and then applies for a refund from the basings office in HKG. The refund will only be up to that amount paid for the ID50 that the company would have paid for his original positioning ticket.
CX does not buy you tickets from your home to your designated base port.
