..I agree..After 3 decades in aviation, on 3 different continents, I´ve got friends and colleaques working for numerous airlines, including EK, NAI and most of the US-carriers..I can confirm that the US-carriers are hiring expats..Fact..

Fly safe,
B757

 

No no no... you filthy expat.... You will never be hired by a US Legacy! Paradigm shift????

 

Correct! I’ve spent close to 10 years abroad flying in the M.E. and Japan. Currently, flying a widebody for an U.S. legacy airline.

 

Tell us your friends name from NAI that got hired On DL AMR or UAL
and I will tell you which of the 3 legacies I Fly for .
BTW the company I fly for only hired one yes one from EK over the last 7 years (upper management relative) and none from NAI
Facts only

 

I'm hiring two, maybe three NAI guys.

 

Good for you. I’ll bet they’re good guys too.

 

Are you Israeli?

 

Lo..............

 

Yes, but you're Horizon Air. Not exactly in the same category as what's being discussed.

 

Norwegian has had a definite negative impact on TATL ticket pricing. They are selling their tickets at well below cost, in spite of load factors greater than 80%.
They have more available seats between London and the NYC area than British Airways.
Passengers don't care that they're in a guppy TATL; Norwegian's loads prove that. All they care about is low ticket prices.

I cannot believe that you would think that Norwegian doesn't negatively impact other airlines. They're filling their planes but still selling their tickets at a price point where they're losing money on every single passenger. That forces other carriers to lower their ticket prices.

Because of Norwegian, my bonus is smaller this year. Do I want to see them go out of business? Yes. Thankfully, that should happen when this rights issuance goes poorly.
