Qatar Airways STaffs

By Rezwan

Hi .. I am about to join Qatar AIRWAYS as a ground staff right after this Eid . I am on Grade 3 ..n they are paying me 3500 QR + accommodation. Only thing I have learned so far is.. the salary is modest to say the least. But I'll take a shot and lets c where it takes me from there. Can anybody tell me few info s about the accommodation of QR .. All i know is I have to share it with somebody. DO they have internet acess in those accommodation i.e wi-fi. If not how much does it takes to have an internet connection in Doha?? Do I get seperate rooms and toilet .. or Do i have to share those 2 aswell .... Appreciate very much if anybody helps me out on these...

oh btw rezwan u should opt for the mosaic tv+ service . will only cost u 250 qr's per month and free wireless router, tv channels and landline and its much faster than the 512 kpbs adsl connection.

He's mentioned he is grade 03. hence the lower salary compared to grade 04.

Btw rezwan, will you be working for Qatar Airways or for Qatar Aviation Services?? Coz for ground/airport staff it is normally under QAS..

What's your designation though? Coz your salary is somehow a lil for a Grade 04 staff....

thanks.

Hi rezwan!! :) Here's how the QR accommodation goes:

>>Grade 03 levels will have to SHARE ROOMS with another grade 03 employee. So meaning, in one flat, there will be 2 rooms, and 2 beds in each room. For grade 03 staff, it will be 4 grade03 employees in one flat...

>>Grade 04 levels in other hand, DO NOT SHARE rooms, only flats. Meaning, grade 04 has their own room, maybe sharing the flat with 2-3 grade04 staff as well...

As for your question, all flats are semi-furnished. 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (1 has bathtub, the other 1 has none), 21" inch tv, landline (without internet connection), kitchen utensils (well, i heard lately, QR are giving a few cash to newly hires for them to buy kitchen utensils, check with facilities), beddings (again, check with facilities, coz some rooms doesnt have their beddings n pillows).. I guess that's it...

You need to apply for an ADSL connection and buy your own router if u wna go WIFI... 200qar/month, then around 300qar for the linksys router....

I guess i answered all your queries... OOoooppsss, btw... I am working for Qatar Airways - Grade 04 staff, that's why I know all this things...

Welcome to QATAR AIRWAYS!!! :)

as far as i know, if you are a QA staff, you have to live in their accomodations. they do not let their staff live sumwhere else unless tht person is a local recruit. by lately, even if the person is locally recruited, they r sending them to their home country n bringing them back on their company visa. i think so tht they no longer give u tht option of living sumwhere else. one of the accomodations is near Centre. i know tht much, but i think its for the stewardesses.

for all i know if your working in QA they will give you a accomodation priveleges. if not you can find some room for rent but its very hard to look for. if you want to save you can find a bed space for 700 QR but with somebody with you maybe 2 or 4 people in one room. the access for internet its depend on the room that your renting.
