Based on my flight experience, it seems that my best chances for an airline job, is with those contract airline jobs like Korean airline, Japan air line and etc. I don't know any one who works for those airlines under contract. I was wondering why people choose to go for them, how their benefits and salaries are different from US major airlines. Also, is contract means, you will never be a permanant employee, without the chance of a career prograssion. Also, which one of those contract overseas airlines have bases in US, particularly LAX. Is there anywere on the internet, that I can compare their pays and benefits?
Any input will be greatly appreciated.
