Been here 8 years now. Never had even 30 seconds of hassle with the cabin crew. Treat them well, they'll look after you, same as everywhere. They do a tremendous job given how difficult the CEO makes it for them.
Moving to the Gulf is a big decision especially if your bringing your wife and kids. Dont underestimate it, its not for everyone. Some wives have come and loved it, others hated it. If it was me I'd come for a week or two with my wife, meet with some families in a similar circumstance and ask them all the questions you need answers to.
Good luck.
