Hey HKG guys/gals,

If you wouldn't mind updating us on the HKG experience it would be great. Just starting to think about it since us in the poolies may be fortunate enough to get a call sometime next year. When the call comes, it appears there might be the option of HKG (MD11 if open by then, or A300 I assume).

What can a super junior, bottom-of-the-barrell guy expect for reserve schedules?

Days on/off?

On reserve, would travel back to the U.S. once a month be possible (not commuting, just to come visit)?

How far could a reservist live from the airport?

2 hour callout?

Is that doable on public transit or does one have to do the company transportation?

How long would you "guess" one would stay on reserve?...assuming hiring somewhat picks up a little...

If anyone would care to share some pictures of their living quarters in HKG, and how much it runs a month, that would be awesome...

Thanks for all the help you guys have provided on this forum!
