From: Dubai - sand land.
YES - would do it again..

I enjoy the flying (not even doing too much now that the 777's taking the flak), the blokes - and gal - that I fly with are all great people, variety of destinations. Most importantly though my wife and kids are happy here - lots to do (and no, it's not always involving vast sums of money!!!), places to see etc etc.

What could change - Obviously salary is behind inflation, but I'm lucky as I don't have a mortgage anywhere, so can keep any spare cash salted away in $US overseas 'til it strengthens - which it will in a typical economic cycle..
Roads, slowly getting there - not sure about some behind the wheel though
Train people up who need it - rather than the usual "dumbing down" nonsense. Example being the "don't practice NPA's" syndrome... Don't screw people over with random policy changes.

On balance - yep, it was a good move for me. I can understand and sympathise with those who haven't got on with EK and Dubai - good luck with greener grass
