This topic has been discussed over and over again and the answer is still the same: No.

It is not an issue of scheduling, crew levels, logistic planning or potential costs of having EU/US bases. The issue is that the UAE leaders want you and your family to move to Dubai, EARN AND SPEND your money there. This way the real cost of employing you is much lower since the same people that pay you are the very same people who send you most of your monthly bills, owns the malls, the restaurants etc etc. You earning your money in UAD but spending them in EU/US would be no good for them.
