Cathay Pacific Plans To Lure Pilots With Special Allowances: Bloomberg

Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd CPCAY CPCAF has come up with a slew of allowances for pilots to curb mass resignations, Bloomberg reported.

The report noted that starting in 2023, senior captains will get a monthly allowance of HK$36,000 ($4,590), amounting to HK$432,000 annually.
The airline has also allotted school fee allowances totaling HK$100,000 per child for up to three children.
At the end of 2021, Cathay employed 16,721 people, the least since 2005.
