For months there was a rumor Qatar was going to get a pay raise.....well it's official according to the new COO.....although the amount has not yet been announced he said it would be paid back to Sept 01.
I have a little better information than some dude in BKK.....however I can't even mention airline by name so didn't feel wise quoting my source. It does seem the company is hinting at an 8% pay raise and housing allowance up to 200,00/ year.
I find this a good thing if we have a bit of a salary war in gulf cause we desperately need it! As they are both desperately trying to attract the same candidates I wouldn't be that surprised if The other carrier matches or exceeds QR.
I did hear something about Emirates getting a new flight bag with a pretty unicorn patch on the side!
