I email them twice on [email protected] and no one responded back to me. It's really disrespectful that you work for a company over 9 years and they don't even bother to reply back to your email.

No problem Captain ..

the arrogance will bite them sooner then later and it will be sweet revenge for lots of former and current employees.

HR just forwarded my emails to some other dept who never came back to me.

They were a useless bunch when I was in Dohell and they got even worse now.

Redundancy from QR was a blessing!

I really think it's a loss of time to contact them and I'm sure they joke about us when We are asking them a document.
The only documents I got from them are : a service letter and a incident free letter.

And trust me, it took 3 months to get them, even I never ever had any issue or report within this company.

I hope guys that we will all have an opportunity to work somewhere else and never go back to Dohell.
I was living there 4 years and I don't even miss the city a little bit.
Like said PAPA_GOLF, it's a blessing to be released from QR and leave the country heathy and with the family.

Thanks guy for the update and the rumors.

Bless you all

A330

Apparently some 330 guys got the email for rejoining today.
All of them are outside Doha.

No chance on the phone for the last three days. Went to Staff Travel this morning 7:15, was #4 in line.
My wife ID90 issued last June 28 with expiry date June 28 2021 was amended for outbound flight in July and return in August.
No question asked.
Staff travel, of all offices, has always been the most helpful.
They will gladly amend your ticket also by phone ...... good luck 😉

Thanks Planoramix. Do I have to call them before expiry date of the ticket ? I still don't know when I can travel and do you know of by any chances I can change the flight destination? for example from Lax-DOH to DOH- Seattle ?

More 350’s guys got an email asking them to visit the boeing office to sign a training bond for their forced fleet transfer to the triple... 😜 17 years in the airline...

Roster on both fleet are the hell. 350’s flying average 130hrs per month for FOs, slightly less for capt but this was before all the transfers. A little voice says 60 transfers planned. Cannot be true or they are shooting in their own feet. Oh but wait, standard QR!! So yep, seems possible with a such high and smart anticipation/planning. Why not!! The upcoming weeks will be interesting especially when 3 new toys are coming from Toulouse this month. So transferring super senior Airbus guys to the 777; probably calling back 787 guys to rejoin on the 350; 320 guy to the 787... seems plausible indeed! Musical chairs.

Some unlucky former colleagues who are still in Doha with the PSA done 3 months ago are still waiting for ANY kind of news......

So. Are you really willing to work for these monkeys?? People are heavily running away from the goat, even with no job behind. Fatigue is extreme, exhaustion is reached and mental health is becoming a real issue with the family apart (the borders are still closed to non-residents). More leave are expected to be taken away from deck crew during the roasted months in lovely dohell.

Brace for impact.

Why do they have a surplus flight crew on A350? they received three new A350 airplanes and they already sacked a lot of A350 pilots last year.

Reality is no one care about staff... people keep saying qatar has better services but it's because they also like to be served by slaves.
Even AA, Delta and United airline are changing their mind set about Qatar . It's sad to see-how people think about Qatar.

They are not. A quick calculation: according to the latest official numbers we’ve got (if they are true.......); there are an average of 8.1 skippers per 350 VS 11.3 per 777. The operations are slightly different but it is a huge difference. In other words, they try to urgently cool down the situation on the Boeing by creating an uncontrollable backfire on the Airbus.

People are protesting and not happy at all by this situation of being forced to be transferred (even more when it’s the most senior guys in the company near the retirement!) but the reply given is “take it or leave”.

Five stars management as always in this part of the World. As somebody already said, by doing that, they think they are acting like genius and get respect from everybody...

popcorn time

What do you mean by changing thier mindset? We're they not always critical of QR? Are they now not so critical?

Are there plans from the airline to call you back if demand picks up?

QR is not doing external recruitment yet. They are just calling back some of the pilots who were terminated over the last year.

They are calling back redundant crew, not terminated.
It's a different status on their HR files.

But I wonder how they proceed, is it by seniority or randomly?
