For me they have my attention if it’s 14 on 14 off and over 25k a month if I can also get past the UK tax system. Too much to give up otherwise.
UK airlines are great and it’s home cannot fault it except the pay! The Chinese airlines couldn’t get me there in the end Pre-Covid on 20k month commuting. I think with inflation 25k is my threshold for Riyadh as the flight home isn’t too long and more chance of westerners there. Can’t see the ME3 people moving families around for just a couple of $ thousand more if it’s sub 20k and commuting isn’t in the table.
I think Riyadh will need to offer life changing money for Europeans to go or ME3 and it needs to be commuting. Otherwise I think it will be crewed with African and South Americans flying for peanuts and even then I can’t see Riyadh getting the huge numbers they will need just from that pool.
Might finally have a big hat and cattle!
