Hmmm. . . with an exchange rate of 3.75 SR to the dollar, that's $5200 a month for a 747 Captain. Must be the "Infidel" rate of pay.

Just be ready to dodge rocks!

Damn, I did not notice the SR in front of the pay, when I saw the number, I assumed US dollar & with the other little perks, I said, "pretty good", but $5200 per month, maybe not the best contract in the world...

Ok with all that, you're up to about what a Nippon Cargo FO earns . . . and you can live in the real world and not live like a prisoner or be treated like an infidel.

pprune.com has some first-hand accounts of life with Saudia. Not good.

Tax free? Eeerr... not if the IRS has anything to say about that. If you are a US citizen you must pay your income taxes regardless of what company it's from. Although i think if you are out there for a really long time or something like that it's tax free then. But i think that time is much longer than 3 years.
