What exactly do you need to know

The financial package is as it says on the website, and is/has always been paid on time
The housing is a big problem, but everyone is different so only you know what you would be happy with. just dont expect a big villa with a pool etc!
It is what is available at the time.
The rostering is no better or worse than any UK airline, its not bid line so depending on your fleet you will get some decent trips and some crap.

The cost of living is about the same as UK, certain things like petrol etc are a lot cheaper.
Education standards vary and it can be difficult to get your kids in the best schools.

My advice would be to come and look around, and dont take everything the gloom merchants write as gospel, its really not that bad!

Good Luck!
