hello guys, today i called by Qatar Airways for A330 F/O in July. I have been waiting for only 3 months. To be honest i was expecting to be called after at least 1 year

so how is the estimate salary for an a330 f/o , roster, and after how many hours/years you become a captain? are they offering wide body or not?
thanks for your replys...

if you went to the assesment three months ago as you claim they should have given you all the details of the package they offer, I don’t want to sound mean or anything but they gave you a pretty thorough slide show of the terms and conditions, It’s weird you don’t remember any of these numbers.

I am sure, as Don Vitto suggests, you will find that out in your July DOJ. With ‘everything changing’, I am sure when FIFA announces in June their reschedule, it will impact heavily between hours on Airbus NOW and THEN.

Just imagine you have an incident during the flight and then this maverick tells the office he informed you he did not have the required rest. It’s simple here, do as you’re required and everything is ok. If you don’t like it, leave and go and work elsewhere.

I would love to be a fly on the wall as you have that cup of tea with fleet management explaining the delay or perhaps the cancellation of a flight because you saw fit to offload the FO as he had violated OM-A. Good luck Pudding

Thick and fast from September this year (30 airframes on order) and 10 more T7s in near future aside from the 50 777Xs due 2020 barring any undue delays from Boeing.

Aren’t the B789’s replacements for the B788’s which I see are headed for Air Italy. I can see on the Air Italy website that they indeed are to receive 30 B787-8s.
