Hi,
Generally, it is true, that KQ is not an expat friendly zone. Whether this is right or not is not really in the scope of this thread and I have contributed my one and a half cents about this in previous threads.
The management is always offering contracts (or threatening to do so) to various people and then the Pilots' Association intervenes with their threats and everything dies down. Unfortuantely, there are people caught up in the middle - those that intend to sign these contracts. This has been going on for years.
Tcee747: To answer your questions, the pay at KQ is in line with international standards. I do not know anything about contract lengths as I'm not on one. If you sign a contract you do not join our seniority system and thus remain on the seat of the aircraft that you signed for. For example, 11 years ago a group of people signed contracts as 737-200 crew and they have remined so for those 11 years!
Cheers
