He even mentioned that a pilot taking a job at Saudia is told of the details of the contract, but then after he graduates from training he is very pleasantly surprised by real details that are a lot better!

Just curious.
Thanks
The deal is worth about 10% less financially than Emirates. The amount of time spent in an aircraft is probably 10% more than Emirates with all the DH within Saudi Arabia. You live in a state which, more strictly than anybody else, observes sharia law.
