I don't think they'll have a problem, Saudia doesn't have an Engineer shortage. They sponsor 1000's of Saudi's to go to the United States to train in these fields. They have 1000's of Saudi's going through Pilot training.
The only shortage there'll be, and it won't last long, is highly experienced longhaul Captains. The lifestyle in Riyadh will prevent 90% of the current Captain applicants ever coming. Riyadh is suitable for Muslims and those wishing to have "no life".
I strongly doubt that commuting is on the table. Certainly not in the first place.
Schooling will be a major Problem. There's one British School and one American school, both with long waiting lists. Other schools, just forget, you don't want to send your kids there.
