The CBA requires it for the first 3 bid months, for all new 4 crew sequences. Both CDG-HKG and HKG-CDG are new in April. Expect 1/3 cap/fo in July.
International Double Crew Provisions
A double crew for a 2-pilot aircraft shall be:
Scheduled: A double crew may be scheduled with 2 Captains and 2 First Officers or with 1 Captain and 3 First Officers, provided, however that for the first 3 bid periods during which a new lane segment is being developed, a double crew flying that lane segment shall consist of 2 Captains and 2 First Officers.

That's exactly how it was when the company first began scheduling augmented crews, but too many Capt's got in a pi$$ing contest about who was really in charge. The fix was to use only 1 Capt. and the rest FO's. If I remember correctly, the change was due to the Union's request.......just another example of us shooting ourselves in the foot.

Have heard recent discussion about a "cruise only" rfo like some of the other airlines have (they get all of their landings in the sim). The discussion seems to include hopes that maybe the OVER 60 crowd might bid it?
