Hi,
I use the du 150 Smart Plan.
Dhs 150 per month for 300 free minutes (local or inernational) plus 1GB data.
Very helpful for calling home.
Good luck.
Intriguing post.
Is it awful to fly her straight back home?
Absolutely not. She is already actively looking for a job and she has the weekends off to go attend interviews... plus you are going on holiday and she will probably make the most of it trying to get a new job.
I'd 'be a cow' and fly her home at the earliest.
