'MustangV8 you really think the spending power of 100USD here in the UAE is the deciding factor on whether or not someone comes from their home country. You are way off the mark if you do.'

Thats not what I think! The 'USD 100' example is insignificant...

AirNoServicesAustralia...So your point is that these discrepancies in salary here is valid mainly based on the spending power of a certain currency back 'home' AND how much money the poor expats send to their loved ones 1000's of miles away!!!!!!! PLEASE.
Hey, it maybe so, BUT why are you trying to validate it? The compensation system doesn't make sense and it is wrong.

'None of us can ever get citizenship here and bottom line is we are all here to save a nest egg for our future (you're crazy if you're not). '

I agree with the citizenship issue but c'mon, man, saving a nest egg, while working and living in the GCC??????? I MUST be missing something!!
I bet there are a bunch o' EK pilots who feel a little differently than you.

Take it easy
