Looks good on paper BUT cost of living has gone through the roof here in Dubai. Company provide a Utilities allowance that does not keep up with the spiralling rental costs and utilities costs.
Further evidence of this being pilots asked to move from company accomadation or asked to pay the difference
Quality of living has changed due to the increase in work load and only being allocated minimum days off each month.
As Scooter's post mentions if your going to have a terrible lifestyle may as well be back home.
Im about ready to jump on my bike and all though not ready to leave EK just yet like many others I am looking , you would have to have your head firmly entrenched in the sand if you were not....
