Just a quick questions, how does seniority work in QR?

1) If a Captain's Date of Joining is after a Second Officer's DOJ; the S/O is basically more senior in the airline?
Does rank matter?

2) If two S/Os join together(Or F/O), does it matter who becomes a F/O first(Or CPT), or are they of the same seniority?

Thanks !

Don't know about SO, but I think there is a seniority list for captains and a differant one for FO. For example once you upgrade to Captain you start in a new seniority list.

I though I would break up the incessant asking about roadshows and when QR will contact me business......

Does anyone have an idea about the Jeppesen FD (Flight Deck) Ipad electronic approachplates use in QR? Can it be used? Or is there is even a need?

Thanks

How much more time must I wait !!! It's been 8 weeks since the good news and 12 weeks since the interview, still no contract, no date of joining, no fleet allocation... Should I start looking for an other job...

I dare say that given its christmass for most of the world, sims will be booked out or slow down due to sim instructors going on holidays. So they prob wont be setting dates over DEC/Jan as they will probably be full?? I am expecting Feb/March time.
I also imagine it will depend on your fleet assignment as well as accomodation and training slots.
Sounds like they are extremely busy.
However, If another carrier calls with a firm contract then it will be a tough choice!!..... come on QR!

gdukkog,

Let's face it, it's not like you didn't try applying to other places.
I can very much relate to your frustration myself, and by many others that were in the same place, but just take it easy.
I understand it's been a while, but QR WILL get back to you.

It's worse when you're waiting for the interview date, or for the "good news" email.
Just sit back, relax, and wait till they contact you.
I haven't personally heard or read of anyone that got the good news and didn't get contacted.
Remember that once you get the fleet allocation and official offer of employment, it will be a matter of days or weeks(about 2) till your date of joining (upon your request, unless you need longer).
I can understand the frustration, but relax for now, you will wish you were still waiting for the DOJ once you've started flying

The world's economy is going down very soon, I suspect and only a few airlines like QR et Etihad will be very safe. Not even Emirates because unlike the 2 others their economy is more fragile. Forget about Asia, Europe, or the US...

qatar executive
hi guys! i just got an invitation to the selection program for F/O Qatar Executive. does anybody have any details about rostering(as I understand your always on standbye except when on vacation), pay, career progresion(to captain), housing etc??
I´m currently flying a regional in europe and making +- 3200e clean (without housing deduction obvious..), but the future of the airline seems uncertain so I would be very grateful for any information.

GCC,

2 weeks, seriously? Won't we have a bunch of paperwork to fill out when we get the fleet and join date? I was counting on a 1-2 month wait from that time.
