HKG Sample Pairings: Good Luck
 
Even after vehemently opposing the LOA I have still considered bidding HKG. It looks like the decision has been made for me. No one in their right mind would voluntarily go do this flying. I thought the company was going to put out some fluff for sample pairings? :confused:

Anyhow, it looks like a 'night-hub-turn-only' schedule, with a couple of 3 leg nights, some interesting body clock swaps, and a lot of cab rides. Also, they planned the GT from HKG to CAN at 1+30 which is unrealistic in my opinion.

Has anybody found out where the magical GT location in HKG is? I just started reviewing all this garbage.

The 1:30 is the credit not the cab ride time, look at the times.

Nice catch, the GT looks like it's planned at 3 hours. My mistake.

After looking again, there is some day flying but it seems to be mostly day/night swaps.

Still reviewing...

Log on to VIPS, click on "Posting 07-03", then you'll see sample pairings and lines for both CDG and HKG

Ouch. Oh well...you won't have to suffer that but about 5-8 times a month...both ways....no problem....

Won't matter--I won't be senior enough to hold it.

Thanks. That was easy..

Exactly, me either.

Pairings 5 and 8 are almost pure day, kind of...

There is a 71 hour CEB layover...

That is the FLUFF. Wait to see what the real stuff is going to look like!:eek:

Ditto, and also not smart enough to bid it.
