How the pay is built
UK basic ~GBP 20,000-24,000/year plus sector pay and commission for take-home around GBP 1,600-2,100/month; European bases pay on local contracts, with Swiss (CHF) and German bases the best compensated in the network.
Income is taxed at this base, so compare the figure above against tax-free Gulf packages carefully: a smaller tax-free salary can be worth more in real terms. You fund your own housing, so local rent is the number that decides what this salary is really worth.
Accommodation
No housing support; the wide base network is the compensating advantage, letting crew work from regional airports near affordable home towns rather than relocating to capital cities.
