There is no pay difference between 777 and 787, or any other fleets.
The 777 probably has more monthly pay as it is mostly longhaul and heavy crews factor the flight time but get paid for all.........so you may be logging 75 hours but paid for 90.
Commutable????? Depends on your definition and expectations.
I am flying with an Italian pilot....he likes it here and says he makes it home more from Qatar then he did when working for his previous Italian airline.
So it is possible to go home a lot but wouldn't call it truly commuting.
BKK currently has 4 flights a day.....but usually very full.
As a pilot you at least have option for jumpseat so usually can get on

Qatar has announced that they'll make a roadshow in Istanbul 12-13 Apr. 2016. (Radisson Blue Hotel)
It'll be a meeting and interview with pilots who willing to join Qatar.
And TK has decreased required hours from 1000hrs to 750 hrs for FO's

QR Medical
Hi
I understand that unlike EK and others, QR doesn't require you to do the medical during the interview. I was told we'll be doing the class 1 after joining.
Would it be ok if i request to do the medical first before resigning from my current employer?
Thanks in advance

There are some extra medical checks done on your initial that now not done on renewal medicals. The medical at STN may not include the full medical required for your initial QCAA class one..
I suggest you do a medical at your home country before you arrive here in Doha so as you have the confidence to know you just passed one at home.

Nervous about your kids ? Why, what's your concerns

Can anyone who's been through the assessment process recently please share details of the sim? (Rated Boeing FO)
I've heard that it ends with a single engine visual, just trying to establish if any automation or fd's are available?
Please PM if you'd rather...
Many Thanks
