The "typical salary" ranges fom 8,000 us per month, to 15,000 for Captain.
FO, 50% of this. Cabin crew 3000 us to 5000 us per month.

Do not expect a rotation, but 11mth on 1 mth off, if a rotation is available, fantastic.

good luck

Do you get any benefits a part from salary when flying in Middle East?
Is it best to work for a private individual or charter company?

I am not an American, but there is a vast influx from USA to UAE, and China and India.
Europe is hurting too, so EU movement to the east is very common.

There are rotational jobs on Glf at the rate on 8k$ per month. CAPTAIN.

No shortage of applicants either.

Another non rotational Glf at 10k, plus plus.

My salary has declined every year for the last 10 years, I hope it does not decline any more, or I will be flying for food stamps.

Typical salary
10K to 15K for a captain and upto 8K for a FO depending on type of aircraft etc. The 2 weeks on off are rare in the ME however more realistic in europe and Russia.
Africa is a whole different ball game and there is always someone who will do it cheaper?:)
