I have read here that captains get $35 per hour and F/O’s get $40 per hour.

This doesn’t seem right.

Hi All.

Would anyone know if SAR20,000 is enough to rent an apartment in an expat compound close to the airport?

Thank you in advance.

Looks like a nice startup, the only issue they’ll have is to find real professional pilots, not easy nowadays considering that not may Ek guys are interested ( except if commuting becomes a reality ) and still a small group of people are interested, many applications, few valid ones.
They’re also limiting themselves by imposing that strange age limit of 59, odd number but the majority of very experienced Captains are exactly there (55 to 60 and even older to be honest), not a Smart choice to give up professionality and airmanship.

No pension.

No staff travel for those on a "lifestyle contract" (commuting).
