That is a good question... I was wondering this myself. Anyone have any info on hiring for Aerolitoral or Aeromexico?

Aeromexico and Mexicana are the only ones I've even heard of. Wouldn't you have to become a Mexican citizen to work for them?

I assume you would need to be a citizen. There are a few Mexican airliens such as Nova Air, Aviacsa, Interjet, Volaris, Click by Mexicana, RepublicAir, Lineas Aereas Azteca are just a few... I would love to fly Aerolitoral's E145s. Or Express Jet's Mexico routes. Flying in Mexico has always fascinated me. Hopefully XJT will still be in good standing in a few years...

No different than any country. Gringos from north of the Rio Grande are unable to get a job in Mx, unless you acquire a Mx certificate and a right to work permit as well. So much for NAFTA.

Adios muchachos y muchachas

Mexico has a law that states if you were not born in Mexico, you are unable to obtain a commercial license there. Same as Colombia, Ecuador, and most of latin america. My Dad is getting ready to retire from AeroMexico after 30 years. Even if your whole family was born in Mexico, but you were born elsewhere... forget it. I was born there and am a US citizen as well. You dont want to go to a Mexican airline. The upgrade times are horrible, pay is bad, and there are other factors that would likely make you want to stay away

I see, thank you for that info.

I didn't think a licence is the real problem, but the work permit is a huge pain. I flew in Panama as a training captain with TACA Regional, got a licence no worries (I hold licences from six countries, you pass the exam they give you the ticket, period). We were looking at Mexico full time, huge pain, but licencing not the stumbling block at that point. One of my former employers aircraft was down there (Mexico) for a while under Canadian registration with at least one Canadian pilot. If you check out the tails you'll see that many a Mexican airliner is registered in the US. Perhaps that has something to do with it. None the less, I flew in Central America and friends have flown down there with local licences; it has never been a problem (licencing, work permits are another story).

You said it... Panama. TACA (The Airline of Central America) is desperate and has been for a long time. Check Mexican regulations... work permit will NOT get you a job in Mexico as a pilot. If you werent born there, you can not get a license. I would be glad to get the regulation links for you
