The majority of countries are going to require you to be vaccinated prior to entry as a foreign national. Do these guys truly believe that American Airlines, an international carrier, is going to create a separate special bid status for pilots who refuse the vaccine to keep them from crossing boarders? It’s laughable to imagine it for narrowbody pilots, and an absolute riot when applying that logic to widebody statuses.

I know it’s been decades since most of these guys have been to college - and they probably aren’t involved with the lives of their estranged children from their first marriage - but colleges require inoculations and records prior to admission. That includes MMR, HPV, Meningitis, influenza, Hep B….. soon covid. Get a grip on reality guys.
