tks but need something in the middle east..
Try going on the actual airline's websites and on the careers section. Qatar Airways, Emirates, Etihad etc. They always have something.

Capt T, did the DX course with IFOD in Dallas who also claim to be the best in the business. Thier course is 5 weeks long and costs $4250. Quite a lot of home study though but not enough to keep from networking in the bar!:ok:

Okay, guys...
Its getting quite confusing… what I have is a FAA dispatcher license, and here in the states you do flightplanning with it, no ramp pax or baggage assistance, so how the heck should I qualify in the UK???? Anyway could it be really so bad to find this type of position in Europe? How do airlines issue a flightplan then??? Nways I just don’t wanna think I wasted 6 grand for nothing….:ugh: If u’re in dispatching then give me a clue…

so u've been at IFOD... I'm about to do the coure there, what do you think of it? and what type of accomodation you received? I mean any info will be very much appreciated...!!!!! I still dont have clear ideas on where to do the course, someone says ifod is the best, others they go for sheffiled... what do you think?
