-If you are interesting to fly to India , 320 fleet in Q.R is the best one(NOT Europe).And if you bid for it (indian destinations,) you will get as many as you want, don't worry....
Try to bid for a european destination... good luck..
-So Far 320 flies to around 40 destinations: mainly india,middle east,africa, european destinations on A-320 are: Vienna,Copenhagen,Barcelona,Berlin, Moscow.But don't get too excited, you might not see european destinations on your roster for more than 6 months sometime.
-Some of the destinations we fly are indeed very "interesting..", they do have "interesting" airport- "interesting" ATC- and sometime interesting weather..
-we seldom(almost never) have duty exceeding 12 hours (in normal circumstance..) on A-320.
-But again duty time is not everything: doing a 12h duty shift at day time(2 sectors) maybe less tiring than having tree night shift in a row flying to third world countries Sh.t airport,sh.t ATC....with almost minimum rest in between!(doesn't allow you to recover properly before your next duty..): thats the most tiring think you might experience here sometime in QR IMHO..
-Another Pain in the A.. you might experience here as well are those intra-gulf flight in the middle of the night with 3..4 hours on ground...Long tiring unpaid Duty(ground time).

As said before..A-320 fleet in Q.R. is not the most exciting and paying one, but probably and sometime the most tiring one.

Indeed...think carefully!

I think this thread is diverting from the initial subject: QR Bonus..
