Chaps,

I think you may have misunderstood what Doha was saying. I am quite well versed in Qatarese, so will try to interpret.

"local they dont have a visa that hav e to be paid yearly plus other things and its there country and they have the rights ,they will say for example u have to learn arabic like other company in diffrent country needs local langauge speakers but u are welcome to work in any of gcc country ,,"


This is basically saying that its their country, their company, and that expats will only be tolerated while they pass the blood test for a visa renewal. It also states that they (being Nationals) will now go the whole hog (oops) and do all the open trips, extra reserve, sim supports etc, and we don't have to learn Arabic.

So sit back and relax at home on those days off, with the comfort of knowing that crew control will not be ringing you again for that trip that you are the only person available for.

You see, not everything here is negative at all.
