@ Sandy Swan,
Better airline? Maybe, let's put it in perspective.
Job security, definitely!
Finance, with the back up of the Qatar gas fields, most certainly!
Product quality, nothing to complain about.
Now, the most important one for any employee:
QUALITY OF LIFE, Bahrain and Gulf Air still a million times better.
At least we are not being ruled by a dictator that treats all the employees as slaves. That's why QR still can't keep pilots after the payrise, let's see how many will head of to EK and EY.
