Hi Everyone

I should be arriving in Abu Dhabi around the 12th of August. I start my new job as a teacher on the 18th. Is 6 days enough time to acclimatize and get over jet lag?  I am excited and terrified at the same time!

Thanks

Paul

Jet Lag depends on the airline ;)

Trust me Paul , it's all on the airline , if you have a comfortable flight , you're ready to explore Abu Dhabi within few hours ;)

After a cup of coffee :P

Don't be terrified , you're gonna be thrilled with a new environment :D

I would like to welcome you Paul here in Abu Dhabi!
I can say that 6days are more enough to recover from jet lag! 1 or 2 days is good... But if you still dont want to work in 6days, why dont you explore first Abu Dhabi?
Surely you'll enjoy!
