Pros

Flexible schedules and long layovers. Outport base only has one route so flight times are consistent

Cons

Cathay Pacific pays significantly lower than any other airlines outside. If you're outport base, you will only fly one route to Hong Kong. Company has been cutting more and more every year. Company culture is a bit hard to work with if you are more Americanized (Probably better to go with United, Delta or AA). Benefits are very expensive compared to other airlines.
