Qatar airways crew's accomodation

yeah, i can feel you too! unlike any other airline, we are not allowed to laugh in the airport, we are not allowed to drink any other beverage than water inside the fleet, not allowed to smoke or drink in the flat, we are not allowed to ride private taxis and mostly, the 10pm curfew, but aside from that, i love everything! QA is as strict as the military because they are concerned about the crews. i hate GCC turnarounds! i hate more than 13 hours of flight including JFK!

as for the accommodation, i was impressed the first time i got in! its not that bad, you know.

i used to work in Gulf Air BTW.

BOW.

one of my neighbour is in QA... he is also unhappy with it...

also they wil keep watching who is in who is out...

who the hell would want to go in a private taxis!!!!
and why ?

Qatar Airways chicks are top priority in the meat market u know !!! private taxis not safe at all 0% ...

what Qatar Airways is doing with the curfew and all is for your own good .. they know its not safe for you ladies to be out at late night , when people like me are in town ...

stay inside be safe

again
why did u mention the private taxis ....
whats wrong with u ..

not only that...for girls if they want to get married they have to ask for permission even ground staff,airport staff ..even old ladies who divorced if want to remarry must ask for permission lol

I dont live with example..Reather I prefer to be an example!

think about it ..
they start getting married .
complications might arise .
Qatar airways cabin crew , how many years in a row now ?? you guys are at top compared to the rest . why because of the rules implied ... getting married bring a lot of responsibilities and even additional pressure on a person .
you guys need to be on your best every single day ..
come to think of it , i kinda feel sad for you guys now :-(

u guys need to get permission to get married / fall in love .... that is heeee sorry , that is just not right ...

but still for the better of the company ^_^

geez! you are being shadowed by QA. Don't you feel some one is stalking you. They are monitoring your private lives with CCTV. gosh!!like Truman show.

what ever aviduser said

i know a lot of people who work as cabin crews for QA ..
and 97% of em got a brain smaller then my left nut .....

aviduser well putt .....

these rules are kept for the better of you guys and the company ..
you guys are v v v easy pickings

Take it easy darksindeep, I did not say they are thick, being illiterate is a product of poor education standards in the girls home countries they are not stupid, they just have different standards perhaps to more industrialized nations.

The problem is these girls are away from home for the first time they are young naive and have money in their pockets, and sadly some people do take advantage.

Other more experienced girls do warn them about the MMDs (My Mohammad is different syndrome, if you are wondering) but time and again sadly fall for it. Add in the availability of alcohol a sex starved Muslim majority population and bingo a recipe for disaster.

The rules probably do more good than harm in the long run.

Also the rule that prohibits people staying over past 10pm was for two reasons.

1. Prominent Qataris were using some of the girls as prostitutes and their wives were not happy.

2. Some girls from the less industrialized nations were moving their families in for extended periods of time.

QR, QR, QR! Qatar Airways code designation is QR, people! (Sorry, deep breath, pet peeve of mine.) And yes, it does suck to be a new hire for ANY airline. And even once you get to be a senior mama, there are days that can still give you fits. But most flight attendants wouldn't give it up for all the tea in China. Give it two years, that seems to be the make it or break it time frame. Good luck.

Let me clear something here.do u know that it is very hard to get Karwa taxi especially during peak hours?If you are rushing and without a car!Somemore karwa is scarce.It is very bad to condemn private taxi drivers.They are mostly sri lankan and indians that earn a decent living by driving under the brutal hot sun during summer.Do you think they want to jeopardise their own rice bowl by involving in illicit activities? I think cabin crew are safer in private taxi hands rather than those drivers that who offer a free ride to hot chicks in the street waiting for a taxi!!! And regarding QR,the curfew at 10pm is reasonable considering other housemates BUT not allow to go or sleep somewhere else during off days and expect us to stay at home all the time is too much. We are human being that have feelings and we need to unwind during off days especially Qatar has not so many interesting places to go unlike Dubai or Abu Dhabi. We are not robot and QR is treating us like servant rather than an asset. That's why many crew left QR to join EY and EK because there is quality life over there ,more salary and more happiness because crew's welfare is well taken care of.

i never like em Cabin Crew people ne who ..

Fly Emirates!

ahhh i've always wanted my very own cabin crew pet! when can i adopt you?

Anyways i know about this stupid situation QR staff are facing as i have friends there too, never liked QR anytime and i dont fly with them anymore :) they always come up with some problem every time. In the end look on the bright side..you get to fly to different countries where u can enjoy there :p seriously what is there in Qatar for you to do after 10 ;) early to bed and early to rise habibi.

Good Fortune always comes knocking at your door...when you are sh*tting in the toilet!! :)

Flying prison!!

flying prison with qatar airways crew slaves even if you spit on their face or kick them like donkeys they will work because thats what they are donkeys

i have cabin and flight deck crew friends and I'm pretty sure they love their accommodation. They don't moan a thing about Qatar Airways. Those are QA rules and before they signed the contract, the airline made them aware of the rules. So i don't see any reason for them to complain.

I can assure you guys there are lots of complaints from OTHER flight deck crew and cabin crew as well .Pls type the website Qatar Airways Nazi Camp and Pprune under middle east airlines and Qatar Aiways. You will read more pilots complaining there.So those are happy must be unfairly treated very well by the management or they are the top management themselves.And QR has never been fair.And pls for goodness sake why QR got the most bad comments compare to other airlines???read and compare urself!Under our contract if we leave QR less than 2 years we have to compensate QR around 8000 riyals so i can't resign right now.And before we sign the contract it did not state that the 10 pm curfew and off days must sleep ur accomodation and etc." the contract should have clearly stated that you are being watched by cctv at our QR accomodation also

cheena told me there's a seminar in the preliminary. so she knows the rules even before she got accepted. ;o) and how could flight deck crews complain, they earn at least QR60,000! ;-))

cheers,
paul

U r complaining in this way. I think u know about the owner of QA. I heard that he doesn't forgive anyone and fired immediately without any reason.

If he came to know about you or other, I think he will do as his habit....

So becarefull!!!

Dear go and complain to ur HR department
no meaning here

blah blah blah .....

boohoo hoo hoo

grow up , life is harsh ...

your jobs is the easiest of em all , you guys just gotta fake out a smile and act like a little robot thats it ..
and u guys get well earned and live in cozy flats .. and get to visit different countries ..

GROW UP ...

your living the easy life ..

u wanted freedom , boyz , alcohol ?
change your professions , a strip dancer / bar dancer is the best job for your whiny little existence ( you don't matter to this world of ours )

Our job is tough and it's not that easy as you think.We've to read n remember everything in our safety,first aid manuals b4 every flight cos there will be a test during briefing and if we can't answer the questions we will b grounded n will face disciplinary action.Then on board the a/c we've to check safety equipments and our designated area.Some have to set up trolleys prepare welcome drinks ,carry heavy newspapers display n etc.Coordinate with catering, arrange the carts. When boarding assist guests in seatings ,storing bags.Seatbelt sign off , change to service black jacket,distribute n collect towels and amenities
Set up and heat the meals on time n load them in the MANY carts alone.Distribute the trays, prepare the drinks,top up more meals and drinks , collect them within the time given, throw away leftover and rubbish clean the cabin and galley.Answer requests promptly, clean and tidy up toilets all the time,write documentations, check the cabin all the time, prepare 4 the next crew, collect back blankets and etc.And change back to maroon jacket and touch up our make up and hair.DO you think that's easy???Qatari girls will not do this kind of job. It is not just waitering, we must be vigilant, alert all the time especially when people are sleeping, we are working!Physically and mentally fit and hv to watch our back not to do any mistake to prevent other crew and passengers to take advantage to stab and report you.
And it is TRUE, after all these hard work and pressure, we get to relax and forget when we stopover in different countries to enjoy the scenery ,food, culture and etc.IN fact i like this job BUT would prefer to work for a better airline which treats their crew better.

Children from the sky....we here cannot do anything. We just read your complaint only. Nothing happen then. Just resign from QR and join SQ or MH...he he he

If ur so unhappy about it.. Whats stopping u from packing up n goin bck to where u came from..

Y don't u focus on all the good things about being in Doha and QR instead of being so negative... Once u do tht things should seem better for u ... Instead of being here n whining about everything possible...

The grass always looks better on the other side.. Once ur in EK or etihad u'll find something else to complain about!!

suckss....I dont like it...Not all that good...Flying prison....etc...

Who cares..Its 5 star.

its got the right crew and service standards on routes that matter.

Screw the Company ...

Freedom of speech ** * * **

:-( .... ... ....

ill whisper it in your ear then ya ..

( screw the company )

can anybody tell me the monthly salary and benefits given by QR to cabin crew staff?

it is too early for you may be after 2 yrs.

"Helping HANDS r better than praying LIPS"
