For Cargo:
10 year captain is worth 160k
1 year FO is worth 65k
Pax pay is a mistery but a lot higher than cargo. They are saying that pilots are trying to join cargo and pax pay together. Also possible direct entry into pax flying might be possible in the future, now you can only fly cargo as a new hire. Good luck getting in it's going to take a few years, a lot of people trying to get in because the word is that they have the best qol and benefits. Plus the U.S bases.

You can find out a ton of info on Cathay at www.pprune.com. Look under the Fragrant Harbor section of the message boards and also under the South Asia and Far East section. Cathay does hire into the pax side, but they start as second officers and gradually work their way up to first officer. They also all are required to be based in HK. They do get housing allowances, but I don't know the pay scales.

Pax pay is a mystery because there are about 17 different pay scales. Do a search on Flightinfo. Capt. Underpants posted them once. You've got "A" scale, "B" scale, Australian based, Europe based, North America based, etc, etc.
