Hello all

Could anyone tell me the lae going rate in Saudia airlines in Riyadh. Just going to fill out a form. So give a realistic idea from any one been there done that

pay

I have that T shirt and have found the worse place to live pays the most.

I worked for Saudia for 7 years back in the 80's when the money and conditions were good.I believe that it is a different story now. If you go there you will rapidly find out what it must have been like to be a black South African in the time of apartheid. It served a purpose for me in as much as I made and saved a fair amount of money and met my wife there.Would I do it again? No. As far as the worse the place the better the salary - my next job was 4 years in the Philippines with better conditions and 50% higher salary.

agree

Well said my old friend and fellow slave in Saudi.

[airlineguy1980]

Thanks guys. I understand the slave part.don't mind doing it fr a few years fr the right price though.the manager is a European bloke. So can't be that bad. Any lae rate with numbers would be great

Based on salaries for one of the major maintenance organisations, about $5000 per month excluding housing etc. Figure varies based on qualifications.

A little better every day - never felt ill - just the right side of my face wouldn't bloody move and sagged a bit - the asymmetry is almost gone much quicker than forecast. Thanks to both of you for your good wishes.
