Thanks

It seems to be a very small difference between FO and capt salaries...
FO: Jungle jett says 8k/month + housing.
Capt: Loc says 10.5k + housing
Did I miss something?
(This is a pleasantly non-emotional and factual thread for QR. I hope it can keep going)

Like i have stated before, QR/Doha is good if your arabic/muslim or married/family wimp.If your single/western and your strait your only chance at any female interaction is the cabin crew, but it takes time.
If you join on the 320 as a f/o plan on staying on that fleet for ever, or at least the next 7years.

Hello guys,
I've just applied a couple days ago to Qatar... I'm 21yo, 1100h total and 870 on the A320, currently employed till March. I would like to move not that I'm young and I still can to somewhere with a permanent contract and big/solid structure. How many possibilities I have to get a call from them with this experience? Last year they were asking for 1000h, now that I have 1000h, they want 2000... WTF!
Thanks for opening this 3ad... I've read it and it is very interesting to know more details about the conditions. TBH, right now that I'm so young and I'm still the happiest person in the world every day I go working, I don't care flying with this kind of rosters at all.. maybe in a few years I will change my mind. Salary is good as far as I can see... only problem is living in Doha.
Anyways, thanks for your help.
Take care.

New Roster Bidding system cut backs
Latest on the galley FM is that the new jepp roster bid system just as it starts to deliver some nice rosters for crew (if you use it in a right way) is now to be cut back severely by order of flt ops pilot management... 
Max days off allowed in a row now cut back to 3. Bad news for all fleets but especially B777/ A340/330. No more long blocks of days off possible giving chance to travel away from DOH. CPF and 330/BM are very against the whole bid process. Apperantly they want total control of all pilot requests for trips/ days off/ changes etc to be with the fleet offices. Do favors for their friends but make life hard for the ones they dont like.
Ability to bid for trips is also cut back to two only in the month becouse mgmt dont like pilots to have nice rosters unless they are the one that give.
Best part is that no crew notice will be put out to explain the new limits becouse there is no way this can be justified.
