Hmmm....
I'd say about $1,000 a month for the junior crew and about $1,400 a month for Pursers if there were no allowances. If there were allowances you could probably bring it down to about $700 and $1,100 for Pursers providing there was an additional pursers allowance. I am talking USD w/ all figures.
Accommodation would have to be first class, with transport to and from work provided. Medical insurance etc would also have to be provided, as well as a ticket home annually.
I must say though that I would personally be a little worried working for an Asian airline after all the horror stories I've heard from Pilots (who have worked for a few) re their maintenance. To be completely honest, the conditions would have to be BRILLIANT to get me to go work there, but then again I have a good flying job here.
