Hi

Hi

Low hour oppurtunities in middle east is non existent.

​​​​​​Air arabia--they only take in their MPL students as second officers/cadets. So if you have a CPL then no chance.

Flydubai- The type rating is paid by the candidate and even after that there is no guarantee of a job at fly Dubai unless you pass through their selection procedure.

Qatar airways--they sometimes take in second officers but there is no guarantee of getting called as second officers training has taken back seat as they prefer young qataris who have their own cadet programme. It's been a while since they have opened second officer program for non qataris.

And general aviation is non existent in the middle east.

And most cadet programs age limit is 28 and some it is 30.

Good luck
