They forced us to work in dangerous situation and lay over in hotels that we might get Corona and then once they used all of out vacation times they terminated people.
I think there should be a way to sue and make this public to the world
I sympathise to a certain degree. But 'the World' watched as Al Bakar declared C19 was not a threat. Qatar maintained or even ramped up service (and prices) without pre flight covid testing, dumping many tens of thousands of potentially infected (or newly infected from the flight) passengers into our major cities with catastrophic results especially in the UK which I concede was negligent too. This as other airlines actually although no saints, cut back. The death toll and damage has been huge.
Although there are lots of sad financial, schooling and loss of dream cases in the industry. There has been a huge death toll, hardship, misery and ongoing catastrophic economic demise globally. We should take time to reflect on how we as a pilot body together with our industry have knowingly proliferated this pandemic and hope for robust future measures protecting crew, industry workers and last but not least the vulnerable populations of the nations to which we operate.
