I’m hoping to get a sense of when inductions might resume and perhaps stay motivated together through study groups.
If you currently have a job and are being paid and can revoke your termination it would be wiser to do so. Moving to the Gulf right now is foolish to say the least.

And there are people who still defend these lot, it's astonishing. This airline has the reputation of being crooks, staff call them Guantanamo and a previous to the previous CEO was a rapey dictator who put curfews on their crew. Yet some clowns want to convince us that they are the best airline in the world and a great place to work.
We got paid 20 weeks, my friends at QR deserved better though, they are by far the worst of the three Middle East carriers in how they threat people.

Hello , I was supposed to join in june , but got a mail from them in April regarding
delay in joining due to ongoing conflict . Dont know when they will offer new joining

Joining dates

I heard they are transfering A330 guys to 777/787 and the 380 guys to 350. So lots of retrainings internally. No new joiners for a long time.. But things can change quickly especially when the war officially ends. We're all in the same boat.

Don’t worry, you guys will have plenty of opportunities very soon. Many people are planning to resign in the coming months, so relax — I’m sure you’ll join your dream airline in the near future. Don’t get discouraged and keep believing you’ll make it. Qr is waiting for you!!

some people say that they’ll start energizing the 380s in June…..we’ll see…
