2100-2700bhd/mth
50-70 hrs/mth
7-9 off days/mth
3-5 stby days/mth
bond over 2 years at 16g bhd
50 days leave + 2 days for travel (usually taken in 2x25)
first leave ticket free all the way home of recruitment, next free ticket only to the end of gf network and subload ticket the rest of the way home.
unlimited id 90s (subload) and id 50s (firm)
adequate housing allowance (may need top-up depending on what you're after)
barely adequate schooling for 3 kids til 19 years of age
full medical cover on bahrain or while on duty elsewhere

the above general details may not compare with the other gcc airlines but a key point here is cost of living and therefore money in the bank after all has been paid.
another important point is lifestyle, whether you prefer the small island desert life or the big city desert life.
if anyone can add to this, feel free. these were just off the top of my head.
