I would strongly suggest that you look at the cost of living in Singapore before accepting any position. On an expat contract (which included housing allowance, child education allowance and Annual Leave Ticket) the package was ok. But the cost of living has increased vastly in recent years and I understand that all new joiners are on local terms and are responsible for their own accommodation, travel and schooling costs.
On the sort of numbers mentioned in previous posts, a single guy who didn't want much of a social life would save very, very little, a married guy with a low maintenance wife and no children would struggle and a married guy with children just wouldn't survive.
Do your homework on the cost of living. There is also a bit of a political sea change taking place with a growing resistance to expats taking jobs that are perceived as being able to be done by locals.
Decent working environment on the flight deck though.
