Thank you for your posts regarding HKG. Company should man up and go above and beyond to take care of us. This just solidifies my stance on part 117.... Same rules for all. Company don't want it cause it costs money. The world will still spin and our schedules will be fine if we are ALL fall under same rules. If Delta, American, and United can grin and bear it, so can FDX. Cry me a river....

Hard to believe that we are actually supposed to be happy they are looking into putting water and soap back in the aircraft so we can have basic hygiene. We should have never allowed them to quit, with out a fight.

What’s our union doing about this? Why don’t we have a deal like UPS where it’s voluntary to go to China and if we do, we get “China Pay”? Why don’t we have a union like American has where they say it’s too unsafe to send the pilots to China and Hong Kong? How do we get our union to act??

210 of the 384 regular 777 lines in March touch either CAN, SZX, or PVG. That is 54.7%. I don't know about the other fleets, but obviously the HKG crews are the most affected.
So what is going to happen to a crew member when they have operated into mainland China (some countries are also excluding travelers who have been to Macau or HKG) within the last 14 days and then they are either denied entry or required to go into quarantine by various countries as this outbreak gets worse? Are they, for example, going to be allowed into CGN or CDG? How many trips are going to be disrupted?
The downstream consequences are tremendous. I know that we generate a large amount of revenue in China, but this has the potential to disrupt the entire FedEx system.
