There are cadet pilot training schemes provided by large airline companies, which are open to people with potential. Under the schemes, they will first receive training abroad which includes theoretical training, simulator flying and practical flying, and then return to Hong Kong to further their technical and simulator training.
Moreover, locally recruited flight attendants usually receive some basic training at the beginning of their appointment before being sent to attend formal training courses at the company headquarters. These training courses, which last for 4 to 7 weeks, include subjects like personal grooming and make-up, first aid, customer relations, baby care, passenger service, customs and immigration regulations, currency conversion, aircraft documentation and in-flight meal and beverage service.
