Qatar Airways Skips Bonuses Amid Iran War Disruptions

Qatar Airways won't give bonuses this year to nearly 60,000 staff, citing huge losses from the US-Israel war on Iran that forced them to cancel thousands of flights. The memo says the Middle East situation is heavily impacting them, so they're prioritizing stability. Bonuses have been paid only the past three years and could be weeks to months of pay depending on position. New CEO Hamad Ali Al‑Khater faces this as his first big test, with profits already down 10%. https://www.thenationalnews.com/business/aviation/2026/05/22/qatar-airways-to-skip-staff-bonuses-due-to-impact-of-iran-war/
