I would imagine they are married on paper so she receives perks such as health insurance, flight allowance etc. Loads of people do that in the UAE.
Would pilots have that as a base salary over there? Do they get extra for long hauls? They are living in a very expensive area.
Just found this thread and enjoying it immensely. As a long term Dubai resident myself, and hater of people like this woman, let me join in!
This bint is one of a few Irish “pilot wife” IG and tiktokers that are all ex cabin crew, all live in meydan and are all boring as duck. They all know each other and are all bitchy as duck. for example, someone mentioned pilotwifeindubai and there is another one under the handle iamkerrimurphy - they are basically copies of Meg but with better editing and natural boobs. They all degine themselves via their partner’s job as a pilot which is super sad as they clearly have no identities of their own.
They try to portray the high life in Dubai but they don’t have the finances for this. A pilot for emirates is on less than 100k euro a year. They get housing and medical for free and usually school Fees paid, but even without tax this doesn’t go that far in Dubai for a family of 4. Meg’s partner won’t be on the top whack as he isn’t legacy or old enough - I’d say you’re looking at a monthly income of max 40k dhs plus one annual bonus, which sounds like a lot but factor in the cost of cars, school uniforms and equipment (all kids need iPads here), transport (taxis, school buses etc), extracurricular activities (not usually included in fees), groceries (much of the imported stuff they buy including alcohol is expensive), birthdays, days out, the odd date night and 35 dhs a pop for coffee and you’ll blow through that pretty quick. When you factor in what she must spend a month on nails, hair, Botox and make up (not to mention boob job repayments etc) they would be lucky to have a pot to piss in. She buys cheap groceries - I saw the cheap bread in one video - and doesn’t seem to know you can get Brennans bread and taytos on Kibsons so she’s defo on a budget at carrefour.
you’d think they’d travel loads because (a) he’s a pilot and (b) they live in Dubai. But no… they can’t really afford it. None of them can really. All any of them do is go home for the summer and maybe take one cheapish holiday a year (if even that for some of them) on an emirates flight.
you’d also think they go to aweskme
Parties and cool places. No they don’t. This one seems to spend her life in McCafferty’s in JVC which is, in my view, cheap and cheerful as it gets and full of teachers and cabin crew for this reason alone! None of them ever go anywhere more exciting than shimmers beach club, mccaffs, mcgettigans, barasti and the odd brunch (which is usually bogof if they have the entertainer app) as they need to get their money’s worth and. These places offer discount for emirates platinum card holders which her husband will have as staff (and she will have use of). I’ve seen some of these women posting about date nights in Jones the Grocer on the palm, which isn’t my idea of an upmarket night out… it’s basically a licensed cafe with a nice view.
none of them have Nannies because they are at home all day and they’re all massive witches as they have nothing else to do so can’t retain them. Query also whether they can afford to pay the decent wages - and you really do get what you pay for when it comes to nannies here
they all want to be “Jumeirah Jane’s” - or rich ladies who lunch in their lulu lemons and with their birkin bags out while the nannies watch the kids. Which is hilarious because they haven’t got the means for this. So they just look like low rent copies. See the fake bracelet as an example.
I find it embarrassing how many of these women are Irish.
Now what I find interesting about this Meg is that she doesn’t appear to be married to the partner: is this right? If so, how does she have a visa or medical insurance? Yes it’s doable having kids without being married now, but he can’t sponsor her if she’s not married to him. So I assume she has some sort of freelance visa and pays for her own medical insurance (which will be pricey)?
and if this is the case… why won’t he marry her? Who lives abroad and won’t even do a quick visa wedding to the mother of their kid?
Well the account name is meg in meydan so I'm assuming she lives there! Very central and pricey! Not like marina central but 15 minutes to anywhere you'd need to go

I have seen the other pilot wife accounts (irish ones) and they are very embarrassing. "A day in the life of a pilots wife" like come on! Can yiu imagine doing a vlog on the day in the life of a teachers wife. It's sad they equate themselves just to being someone's wife but they do seem to live nice lives. I thought megs account was a bit different to be honest! But I do agree they certainly live a meager lifestyle by UAE standards. Nothing flash
Don’t be silly. She realises when she goes back home how good her life is in Dubai she’s better than all of us.Amen to all of this!
She thinks she’s hit the big time with her pilot partner in Dubai I’ve met so many similar . Realistically it’s not a great wage for Dubai. Every time she shows Wafi Mall a part of my soul dies it’s genuinely a depressing place.
Take away Dubai and she’s living a very ordinary life like she could be in any town or village in Ireland ya know the small town that she’s escaping from

Agree with this. Wafi mall is the pits. It's old, the air con is tit so it's hot and sweaty, and it's quite claustrophobic. unless she is being g paid to advertise it then I think she's nuts to keep going there. There aren't even any decent soft plays or kids stuff in there (my 3 year old thought aya universe was a bit meh). I live in Dubai Hills though so I'm spoilt because the DH mall is the one...Amen to all of this!

The figure of 40k per month I suggested would be all in.. that's my understanding znywzy. And I don't think they get flight allowances, just discount and standby options. if they did she'd go away a lot more I'm sure. The legacy pilots and more experienced older guys are getting better money but generally it's not as well paid as people ethink bbecause they get housing and school fees paid separately which is a big perk.I would imagine they are married on paper so she receives perks such as health insurance, flight allowance etc. Loads of people do that in the UAE.
Would pilots have that as a base salary over there? Do they get extra for long hauls? They are living in a very expensive area.
Does she! that’s disgracefulJust wondering people opinions on the fact she vapes in front on the kids? Is it just me that thinks it’s not the best influence or is this the norm now
Well no proof she actually exhales in front of them but the big duck off vape in the middle of the table with her son beside her in a bar….Does she! that’s disgraceful

That’s disgraceful! I missed this though, which post was this in?Well no proof she actually exhales in front of them but the big duck off vape in the middle of the table with her son beside her in a bar….
