CX Commuter pilot
Hi,
I'm looking to talk to someone commuting from HK to US, Canada or Europe from HK.
I have an interview coming up at CX for SO, also a family and planning to commute for the first fews month.
Anyone in that situation your help would be really appreciated, public or PM.
Cheers

I have an interview coming up as well, I asked this question to my friend and he told me this is highly frowned upon. He said if the recruiters smell the slightest hint of you commuting they will not hire you.
Not sure what their policy is, hopefully you get a better answer.

Haha commute hk , bad idea. Remember you only get id90 tickets on your own airline even if riding in the Jumpseat, yes you have to pay every time, no first class until 5 years of service is completed, and no travel bennies until 6 months after indoc.

Read PPrune first
You might want to catch up on how ugly things are at CX right now. Tons are quitting or retiring early it's so bad. Go somewhere where you won't get treated like a peasant. From what I heard staff travel is the worst in the business. Hong Kong is noisy, polluted and really REALLY crowded. A lot regret ever going to CX. You'll see if you go. Don't say you were not warned.

I went a few years back, and haven't been able to return. The time I did go, I had to buy an ID90 on OA. Stopped in NRT. Then a long layover.

Go to pprune or even the others threads here and do some research. Situation is not good at Cathay as an SO.

That being said I've heard "a few" tried commuting to Bangkok, but that's only a 2:30 min flight with tons of options... Commuting to North America is not possible, not to mention the toll it would take on you.
Good luck.
