Foreign airlines that have US bases?
 
Does anyone know of foreign airlines that have US bases?

Cathay Pacific

Air New Zealand (but you still need to have right to work and live in NZ)

and not sure but I thought there was a Chinese cargo carrier with a base here.

Probably others that I am not aware of. :confused:

JAL use to have crews based in HNL. Not sure if they still do or not.

Korean allows you to choose US base.

Do you fly for Korean and if so do you recommend it?

It would help when people aren't so darn vague! What aircraft are you interested in, or more importantly, typed in? You have to have the type and min hours to fly for a foreign carrier, unless it's a similar type that that airline takes, Ie. A320 for A330, 767 for 777.

for a general answer: Korean Air, some chinese airlines like Hainan Air, Cathay Pacific.
All you need to do is put the aircraft you can qualify for, put the words "captain jobs" or "first officer jobs" and insert in google search and presto, look at what comes up. Easy as that.

Facebook, do a little homework yourself too. First you are on the wrong link. Second, check on Pprune or here, and see what comes up for those or any other airlines when seeing if people like it or not. Save some time and forum space too.

I haven't really been following JAL much since I don't yet meet their mins, however it was a place that I was interested in trying to go. What do you mean they cancelled all the expat contracts? Aren't they still advertising as hiring 767 FO's?
