Hi
Finally, after months of job offers and obtaining the position I really want at KAMC I will be flying out to Riyadh on the 9th June. Its all getting a little unsettling now as the time is drawing closer. Top tips for essential items and last minute preparation would be gratefully received.
Cheers :cool:

You can get everything you will need out here so don't worry about forgetting anything.
I would say just basic bathroom items and anything you might personally think you will need the first few days such as clothes. Bring an outfit for an evening out as well, you want to be stuck with just your lazy shorts or something. Plus something for the pool. It is getting warm now :) Depending on how much luggage allowance you have put extra clothes in. BMI is only 20kgs so that doesn't really get you much.

That's right. You'll get everything you need here. So pack all the important stuff alone. Unless you like to carry more luggage :)

welcome to the desert kingdom !!
