Eitihad into Abu Dhabi and then bus is most probably the dest route.

have you been to Al Ain before accepting this position?

[desertfox52]

Dear Sir

It seems strange to me that you have accepted a position without either you knowing the route to get there, or more strangely the company that has employed you is not making provisions for your collection!!!
I presume you have an employment contract and the correct visa.
Al Ain is not a Dubai or Abu Dhabi --yes there is some life there but not on the scale of the previously mentioned cities.

As previously mentioned the bus or taxi is your only route to Al Ain from the air port. It certainly does not have an international a-port .

I've been in Dubai 3 months now, my first time in the ME although when I was in the RAF I spent a year in Cyprus and 6 years in Germany. I'm an ancient old beast of 55 with wife back in UK due kids/grandkids/aged parents. My line of work is the Air Traffic Control industry which I've now been working in for 37 years.
I'm open to any/all suggestions for a meet up or something interesting which isn't competitive sport (like football, rugby, golf etc. In fact anything to do with balls or sticks as I have the hand/eye coordination of a 3 month old baby). I live in JVT.

Just thought I would say hello,

Thinking of applying for nursing job in Al Ain and bringing my gorgeous 2 boys and hubby, are the hospitals any good over there? As uk hospitals could do with some investment in staffing and a lick of paint here and there!

Just moved to Jeddah, looks like I will be in a hotel for a couple of months whilst villa beomes available. I have viewed Sharbatly and Muna Bustan. Can anyone recommend preferences for Western compound or any tips on compound and Jeddah in general. My family will move out end of August so 4 months here on own.

[1967tazz]

Both are good compounds, we have been on Sharbatly now for nearly a year with our 2 teenagers, and for them its safe and always lots to do. For us the leisure facilities are great and the chance to meet friends over a cool drink or meal by a poolside is very appreciated after a day at work.... Enjoy your choice.

Hey there!

I'm Ezza and originally from Canada. I like to travel and have lived in Sweden, Mexico, Austria, and soon Bahrain will be added to the list.

I won't be moving until August, but I'm looking forward to meeting some fun people on on here.

I like going to concerts, dancing, swimming, exploring, reading (esp sci-fi), board and card games, some video games like Skyrim (um, ok I might be a bit of a nerd ), and watching zombie movies!

Looking forward to meeting you!

Shame I'm no longer in Bahrain..could have done lan parties.. YAY! Not much in terms of interesting concerts in Bahrain, but they do do battle of the bans and stuff..beats the standard cover band any day.

[IndieDarling]

Yeah that would've been cool.
I didn't find much with regards to concerts, but thanks for the info about battle of the bands-I'll keep an eye out.

Thanks for the info!
