Don't forget Gulf Air. We may be small but somtimes smaller is better!!!
Reagarding your questions:
1) No pension only indemnitiy when you leave
2) Pretty hard work especially on the mini-bus
3) Very good standard of training with good instructors
4) Pay is up with all the other carriers but it is cheaper to live in Bahrain
5) Future??? We hope it starts looking better. I guess that will happen once we place an aircraft order then the future will look much brighter
6) Less politics than the other carriers
