Help understanding if salary is enough...

Hello,

I've been offered a job in Dubai and even although I've done some research on line to compare living costs to the UK, I can't quite ascertain if the package is good by Dubai standards or not.

Dubai package
- Basic salary of 55k p/m AED
- Annual bonus of around 30%
- All relocation expenses covered
- Annual travel allowance
- Education expensed covered
- Private medical cover

We will have to cover our own accommodation costs but this would be offset by renting out our flat in London.

Would this be enough to live comfortably and save some money?

Many thanks

JPM
