All training and Sim in DOH, covered by GF, full pay from day one, no out of pocket expenses. Laundry covered while in BAH, uniform only, and at HQ facilties.
UAE visa, supposed to be under way as soon as AUH has your info, but may take a little longer due to the UAE way of passing the $$$$ around.

Banking: HSBC will help you sort out your requirements before your visa shows up, and have been helpfull for us. Can't bring the family until the visa is in your hands, but they can show up for a "visit" for 30 days, but will have to leave again before a perm one is issued.
On line, all hotels covered to a pretty good standard, and an allowance paid monthly (based on an hourly rate per duty hour away from base) to cover food etc. Same standard as the other airlines out here and works fine if you keep your cool!
Hope this helps...
