longest serving qr
 

Thanks.. we definitely had some great time there, pulling our hairs but sorting out finally.
Think with all the QR bashing going around, this thread definitely brings out some great moments. 12 years is a lifetime to be spent working together.
cheers
John

This thread is incomplete without at least one reference to the superbly ice-cool and level-headed diamond, Laura Diamond.....................

A300 Man, ah indeed...good call.

Marissa was there when I left in 2001.

Chic Dolly, I was there 96-01.

John, well it still disgusts me what goes on with QR but the fact remains that we all have had some fabulous laughs and times there.

And who could forget the Tunisian gang: Soheil, Lotfi, Gadoor etc!!! What about Yasin, Shk Hamad's snitch!!??

I'll never forget Shk Hamad offloading a pax in Cairo who was abusive to a Kuwaiti woman. Or his approach into KRT during a sandstorm!

And what about Hussein!!?? Mr.Offload!! Snow white and the seven trolleys!!

Ha ha,

Cheers

HR

BTW, we are travelling on QR on the 28th LGW DOH CEB....anyone on there?

Cheers

yasin and some more
 

Oh yes... how could we forget yasin.... the one man show at crewing. He would return from Canada after a holiday... and be straight at office.. he would know the schedule thoroughly., AIMS was in his head. but of course.. he had a huge flip side crew loathed most of the times. Samir who was with him is still around.
Anybody remembers Mario Spinola at dispatch??
The Sri Lankan CSD.. i am really sorry I forget her name....who was among the first batch with Saira, Kevin, Ashu and off course Poly
We all forget one name who has been there from the begining and who is still around - Mohsen Tabibi.
Capt Bougherara... remember the tail door flip open on the 727 while take off??
Capt Khaid Ibrahim... 727 guy and then later on the 320... God knows what happened later.. he is now in flight ops.
John

homesick.. sorry.. do i know u.... john

Yes you do!! Look at the flag undr my name...that should give you a clue!!

I remember Mario.

Is it Chandani you are asking about? In NZ I believe and had a baby. Recall the Boogie incident, Tabibi of course.

Captain Khalid, great guy.

chandani
 

Thanks.... yes it was Chandani... nice girl

The Sri Lankan pioneering female CSD's:

Chandani ("Chan")
Nilkanthi ("Nillie" - still there)
Harshini ("Harshi" - was actually a CS, but still one of the early ones)


(Ach, Homesick, you have just beaten me to it!! Your post just nipped-in before mine. I had no idea that blue thing under your name was a flag!)

Chandani is now in Oman, by the way and, yes, just had a baba.

Others......Tracy / Leigh / Denise / Mary-Clare / Jamie-1 / Jamie-2 / Joanna / Nicola / Del-Nawaz / Annah / Monika (Austrian?) / Zeenat / Laura Diamond / Laura Diamond / Laura Diamond / Laura Diamond......and.......Laura Diamond.

Can you guess which one was my favourite??

good luck
 

Thanks ... I am just taking a deserved couple of months off.. be with my mom.. and then back to the grind.

Didn't that happen on descent into Kuwait? I seem to remember that they couldn't get the aft airstairs to close, so they flew all the way back to Doha, and the airstair door got damaged during landing. :ooh:

727
 

I remember this.. it all began with a door open warning on ground in DOH,,, followed by clearing it as false alarm... then on take off noticed by ground staff but ac continued to Kuwait.. but later dediced to return to DOH..

ChicDolly,

That flight was bound to AMM. On September 14, 2000.

ChicDolly...who would forget Houda Chentouf???

and those crew who loves to go straight to Akbar after the flight...like Sawsan Habayeb, another Houda (can't remember her family name)...reports to Akbar about the flight and twist the story so they put the CSD in trouble...
but eventually they have paid the price of being evil...

Never heard of that Chowdhurry...maybe after I left???

-Chandani was in NZ and now moved to MCT with family.


-Soheil just got married in Tunisia and returned to the hotel manager job in DXB.


-Harshani moved from Rome to CMB with family.Hubby flying for Sri Lankan Airlines as an FO.


-and....that was (yet again) :D Susan Al Awak who was the CS in the B 727 aft stair way incident at take off......IT TOOK PLACE EX DOH!!


-A 300 man,.....u seem to have a very soft spot for Miss Diamond ??? she was just fabulous,indeed!


-Homesick : were u on that flight ( LGW/CAI/DOH) when SHK Hamad kicked the man off and threw his bags too,outta plane when there was some sort of issue???....I was there too! Gosh...I ve been everywhere!!!!:ugh:
and I also heard about El Khair.is he the cabin crew manager in that new airline??


Chick, I remember Arthemus (mis) very well...jeeeeez,I hated to fly with her.waste of space!...and ofcourse how could u not remember BOMB THREAT HOUDA!!!?.:D


-and the CSD on that hijacking flight incident was Nilie.flight was heading for AMM,but ended in Al hail in Saudi.who was that British guy???...I just cant recall his name!

Houda was CC Recruitment Assistant around 2003.

What happened to Zelda Eramus, Raffella Berti (I think she continued on being Premium Lounge Manager?).

You are not referring to Houda Toufik (CS), are you?

by the way,Marisa cordova is flying for AA in LA she also has a filipino food outlet there.and polly Irani is in Houston TX.


No...it wasn't Houda Toufik, the other Houda ....Chentouf (???).



Does anyone have any info about Maya Nimor ???...anybody here did Air Afrique chaters?

hahahahahaha.....that plastic babe was Isane!...but she did not go to Gulf air.the morroccan who went to Gulf Air was Nadia Dnuane.


Steve Samuel was a drama queen alright..:D todate he thinks he speaks Arabic!....but a good soul !!

spot on Chick!....that was Martin Moore...Good lad he was !

yes, I was referring to Houda Toufik, she was one of those crew who went to Akbar directly after the flight...and have caused trouble to a CSD...
