to move to the left seat could be faster.
No No and No. All upgrades will be according to seniority and yours will SUCK, you will be number 8-900 in the First Officers list. There is a steady stream of Saudi college graduates about to start returning, they will take a lot of the A320 training capacity, leaving less places for upgrades.

Present FO's with over 10 years service are getting bypassed due to Saudiization, they were promised left seat A320, but it doesnt appear to be happening.

Last Mainline FO's to upgrade were about 5 years ago.

not being happy at the end of the day in Jeddah
Strangely enough a lot of people are extremely happy here, its all relative to how many days you get to spend in the Sahara
