Reducing fleet
Qatar are just about to announce a reduction in fleet size not an increase. They Lost a significant amount of money this year and the CEO has advised that there will be a reduction of employees/ fleet. Perhaps the airspace closures for the last 2 years finally starting to bite.

It is not just this. They have expanded rapidly for a long time and been making huge losses. The ceo will announce soon redundancies. They cannot fly into Saudi, uae airspace and this is unlikely to change. Really there will not be an improvement for a while. Ethiad and Emirates also feeling the pinch in general and recruitment has stopped. New low cost carriers are opening like wizz air in Abu Dhabi May be worth trying them....

Where do u see their T&C?
On their website you can just apply but I want to see what I am applying for.
I am a FO TR 787, does that mean I will fly 787 for Qatar or they can put me on a different type?
Does the assesment take long time (from application until starting if successfull)?
Thanks in advance for answers👍🏻

so if we have a upcoming assessment in Doha. As per your analysis or update, if the hiring is stopped, do you think they will stop me from coming for the assessment or still interview me and if i do pass the assessment, i will be placed in the pool. I applied for the Boeing Type Rated FO position.

To be honest, I don't know. But, in my opinion, pilots who have started the process will continue. I believe they stopped the recruitment for new candidates, not the hiring of those already on the pool or in the process.
Anyone with a more accurate information feel free to correct me.

Historically seen, Qatar has always welcomed the ones to Doha that have an assessment. If there's a need, they've been put in a conversion course and if not, they would rot away in a holding pool (even after a positive assessment) for months or even years. An ex colleague waited 1 1/2 years until he was finally offered a starting date last year in January.

hey guys!
I applied to QR last month, for the rated FO.
i'm rated on Boeing 787 as well as on the A32S, any advice on what's the best route to take? (better chance on upgrades, roasters, flights...)
Boeing or Airbus?
cheers!
