Question

What can I say:

QR is not as bad as many people on this forum would like it to appear to be! A320 is a bad fleet as far as the roster patterns are concerned: Plenty of night turn arounds, combined flights, double sector days in 50 degrees heat and so on

The max days OFF you can get these days is 3 in arow. Yes, you will get 8 to 10 days off per month but they will be scatterred all over the month.

Good points about A320 are that the atmosphere on the fleet is nice. Together with the A330 the A320 is the most professional fleet and on the A320 most CAptains are young generation and very laid back. QR A320 has the advantage that it is used as a medium haul fleet they do a lot of European sectors (layover). The mix of A319LR/A320/A321HGW is interesting. The chief pilot is barely noticable and likes operating behind the screens, the FTM320 is one of the best guys around!


This all being said. If you are actually employed by a company offering you a good lifestyle and acceptable salary,WHY would you even consider coming here? Nothing beats living @ home and money is realy NO substitute.


Think carefully my friend.

Think twice before joining ANY expat airline because you will be signing away all your rights!
