Qatar Airways retires final A330, offers pilots RwandAir secondment
Qatar Airways has retired its last Airbus A330 passenger aircraft and is offering short-term secondments at RwandAir to more than a dozen A330-trained pilots.
Qatar Airways has retired its last Airbus A330 passenger aircraft, ending the type's service with the carrier. The aircraft remained in the fleet longer than the airline had planned.
More than a dozen A330-trained pilots are being offered a voluntary short-term secondment to RwandAir. The source said the arrangement is meant to let pilots who have flown little commercially during the regional disruption maintain their flying skills.
Reuters reported the fleet and staffing details, citing two people familiar with the matter and fleet data.
