Career change to Middle East?
Hello everyone,
Giving serious consideration to working in the 'sandpit'. Currently working for low-cost in UK. Experienced left seater in his forties. Soon to be E195 rated. Where do I start /what should I avoid? Looking either to move or perhaps contract - month on month off??! Be grateful for some assistance and the experiences of other expats - unknown sector of the market for me. Feel free to PM if you wish. With thanks in advance.

Saudi Aramco (private operator) has a fleet of E170's and one of the best total packages in the Gulf. Don't believe they have hired DEC's for a long time but if you don't ask you don't get ...
