Its not only QR that lacks Clarity but the Country itself, Non the less, I hope for the best but always prepare for the worse.

next round of layoff started
 
next round of layoff started last week . There are letting go of most senior pilots even on B787 and A350.

Any news on those stranded pilots? Think they started letting permit holders back on the 1st but no idea about priority...

Are we talking about only first officers here or captains also ??

And surprisingly a lot of the skippers from the sub continent have been spared the axe so far … 😳

This round is about Captain and they have already redundant more than 200 senior captain.

Imagine you fly back to doha after your duty and then they wipe your schedule for the rest the months . They are trying to terminate captain with higher seniority since they are getting more money that younger captains.

in other countries if they are trying to ask senior pilot to voluntary quit it's because they have retirement scheme .

In Qatar airways they should at least let senior flight crew to work because they can reduce their salary.

Letting all the senior bods go ain't a good idea for experience levels on the flight deck, I guess it's all about the $$$!

Typical Middle East though. Experience means nothing only $$$ :(

Middle east?? Sorry to say it is worldwide.

Fired600 7th Aug 2020 11:47

What happened to the days when experience was of value? I swear I should put PPL and 40hrs TT to stand the best chance of getting/keeping a job these days!

Does anyone know if we can sue Qatar Airways?

I was flying more than 90 hours per months during FEB -August and still they force us to use all of our vacations so basically 15 days off being prison in doha and then 15 days of intense flying and then right after maxing out our hours for the following month they terminated us.
They forced us to work in dangerous situation and lay over in hotels that we might get Corona and then once they used all of out vacation times they terminated people.

I think there should be a way to sue and make this public to the world

Re-think. Clear your head. Forget your hurt pride. Look for brighter future.

Flood the safety office with fatigue reports.

Does anyone know once they terminate your contract , Would you still get housing allowance for three months notice period ? or you have to move back to company accommodation?
imagine you have one year lease contract and they terminate you in the middle of the month .
Thanks,

GDAJB 11th Aug 2020 18:36

Yes you do. Salary plus usual allowances for 90 days.

mmorel 11th Aug 2020 18:55

Thanks GDAJB
So if you leave earlier for example after 30 days will they still pay you the allowance for the remaining 60 days?

GDAJB 11th Aug 2020 19:37

Yes, they do. It is payment in lieu of notice, so you can leave once the paperwork is complete.

Acc to local law, you can terminate the leasing contract and have your whole deposit paid back to you as long as it is due to loss of employment.

If you were given discounts like free months etc. they have to calculate the rent pro rata.

What's the story with the chinese CAA not accepting qatari licenses?
