Agree with 6100 re EK

I worked as a flight attendant there 9 years ago, and just prior to that some australian pilots tried to start a union and were promptly sacked. As far as expat jobs go, yeh its one of the better ones, its really a full on party scene out there, like Las Vegas in the middle east, lots of fun. Lots of wife swapping among the "jumeirah Jane" sets......same old same old expat lifestyle be it oman, Cayman Islands great fun, very shallow, many people exceeding their time to leave as the golden hancuffs sydnrome kicks in. Hell - you can even buy your own property there now, you could be rubbing shoulders with half the english soccer team who have bought apartments on the infamous Palm Island resort......its exciting! YOu'll meet some great folk, and some who you think are friends for life and whom you'll never hear from again once you leave....all in all a great experience
