if they provide a decent accommodation and then deduct the 2,500/- its not so bad... becoz the actual rent is much higher than that.... but i know they don't do that any more .. they used a few years ago ... but not any more.. right now, i think only a few top position and air crew are provided with accomodation...

unlimited tickets .. u can avail ... they only give you a chance to take official annual leave i think twice a year... but then you can travel over the weekend and public holidays (eid .. is tiwce a year and if .. other holidays like qatar national day falls with the weekend) .. i know many QA staff who travel on thursday and are back on saturday :)
