Do Not, Do Not, Do Not join EK. 
The management are a bunch of two faced lying Ba@tards, all of them from Clarke down.
Stay away, and don't say you have not been warned.

Ahem, there's Gulf Air. A most unsung airline in my opinion. Modest growth plans, good conditions, great work environment, without the fake glitz of Dubai, and no DECs

AND no clue on how to go forward, with or without the new CEO. BTW, they ain't hiring either and might let a few of the newbies go. Depending on how many decide they can't stomach Iraq.

iT REALLY DEPENDS ON YOUR CIRCUMSTANSES! But I would give both FD & EK a miss. EK have been messing around people who passed the interview well over a year ago and told people they have passed the selection, got their hopes up then moved the goal posts & after a year told some of them they are now not qualified!
If low cost 4 sectors a day is your bag go for Air Arabia. Otherwise go for a company that has money, EY springs to mind but almost no recuitment there till 2011.
That leaves QR, Oman Air, Saudia & Gulf Air. Next it depends if you are a low time F/O or Capt. QR pay the best and take DEC's & low time F/Os, Gulf Air & Oman Air are nicer people, but QR has the new routes and shiney new equipment I am afraid to say it comes down to QR in most cases, they have good staff travel but no pension. Saudi look after their staff & have a pension but do you really want to live in JED? At least in Doha you can go to the pub (or even the disco) for a beer after the flight! Better still as other people say only come to the Middle East if your current job is no good or you have no job.
