New man at Qatar Airways.

So it is confirmed that Mr.Bandula Saputhantri is the new big man(VP) at QR !?

He was with Air Lanka,Emirates,and last was with 9W before the new role at QR.

What will happen to the "Snake"-Saliya? He is no more making decisions and is somewhat "Ditched" by his Master (AAB),we hear.

Any info?

Sure there is....

Its not the Nationality but the "Competency" that matters.

New Guy is very good,however the question is weather he will be brainwashed? or forced to follow the usual AAB trends?....or else he would be out in a matter of days/weeks/months.

I have seen over 10 CC managers here during my time,shortest serving being the British Mediterenian Airlines lady-Just 24 hours!

1122334455 - Info given in my report is very accurate NOT Rubbish

Just for the record, take a look below.These are the CCM worked for QR since I my time.Its over 10 managers,isnt it ??

1) Felecia -(Canadian)1994
2) Don (British)1994-1995
3) Siham kortas (Tunisian)1995
4) Samir Milkawi (Jordanian)1996-1997
5) Jacky ( British-Med )1998
6) Mark Turner (British)
7) Ed pim ( British )
8) Romeo krishak ( Italian/Spanish )
9) Lee shave -Cabin services-(British)
10)Bob gates (Australian) 2000/200
11)Saliya (Sri Lankan)
12)Bandula saputhantri (Sri Lankan)

B med Jacky did not work in 2001.It was bob gates who was heading the department.Jacky joined QR in 1998 just for 24 hours

Kingfisher/Snake story is news!! ( I doubt it very much though)

Have to agree with BL but what position did Patsy Plested hold? Remember her BL?

I heard on my flight back from DXB yesterday that Mark is at Jet? Any ideas?

Cheers

HR

No one no matter how good or bad the person might be will ever last longer than couple of years with AAB. He just keeps on changing them for the sake of it and to protect his own a&&. Thats' exactly the case in flight ops as well.

CC

Who care who is on that position ?
1. Its only a cabin crew
2. Any person on this position has no power to change anything
3. First they should learn crew how to say "good morning " and if they can do that then only how to open doors on aircraft
4.Welfere jojke department ( any time you go there youre ass hurts )

Mr. BKKLayover - are you identical with Mr. BS himself? As far as I remember you didn't leave EK on the most favourable terms. Actually TD wanted you sacked but instead offered you a honourable discharge. Now even Jet couldn't stand you? Good luck with the goatliners!

Pita, you have such a lousy attitude! "It's only a cabin crew" definitely shows your opinion of your colleagues. Disgusting!

you guys seem to have a lot of problems between yourselves in QR. If the management makes your life hard (as far as I read) why dont you respect each other at least?
Pita mate your atitude is disgusting!
