    Joining in January. What is a normal duty length at QR and what is the longest legal one?

    Normal turnaround duty 9 to 12 hours, long haul single sector 12 to 14, ultra long haul up to 17 with augmented crew and rest. The Qatar CAA limits follow the same logic as EASA with FDP tables by report time. The roster is legal by design; your job is to sleep before it.

    The Doha to Manchester and back turnarounds in one duty are the ones that feel longest. Legal, but long.
