Hi guys,
How is it looking in QR for a whole bunch of FOs from EK with around 2700h on 380 and around 4500 airbus time? As you might know from another topic we are being shafted over age. What are the requirements to upgrade and how long is ot looking at? Possibilities of fleets?
Thanks a lot!

ULR's are 48. In the Summer that is LAX and IAH, in the Winter it also includes MIA and DFW. YUL is 48 or 72 once a week. Other patterns exist due to freighter ops or changes in scheduling. Ended up with 48 off in LHR last month.

Hi guys, couple of questions...
1)How do command upgrades work on the bus fleet? Do you go RHS 320/330/350/380 then start LHS on the 320 again? Do you get employed on a type and keep the type till command?
2)Do people change fleet internally if there are slots (airbus to Boeing , 330 to 350 etc) or this is a no no unless basically drafted to the fleet as per FOP needs?

How long to wait
Hi guys thanks for all the previous posts they have been very useful. Just a quick question how long after completing the sim assessment do you know if you got accepted or not?

I've received the approval email within a week after sim. But went to the talent pool, then no idea how long will it take to get a DOJ.

So with your logic, a cadet with 200 hours joins before and an FO with more then 5000 hours will have to wait untill the cadet gets his turn for upgrading?

Anyone who joins QR will have 5 years worth of eligible candidates ahead of them for upgrade. Experience only counts for the upgrade once the seniority does.
