From flying abroad back to the US
Hi all,
A question for those of you who may have lived, worked and flown abroad, be it in Europe or the ME or Asia / anywhere else, who have successfully returned and gained employment in the US, especially with a major airline, have you had any issues or challenges during the transition?
Any issues with paper work? Background checks? Logbooks? PRIA requests or anything else that may have had an adverse affect on the process / transition?
I am applying to return home after some years and am curious what challenges or issues I can expect, if any, during a potential interview/hiring/application process.
Appreciate any insight. Cheers!

Ten+ years ago it could be a problem, I knew (ex-mil) people who wanted to come back but couldn't get a call from a major. A couple of them worked around that by just coming home, then they were able to get noticed, attend interviews, etc.
My understanding now is that it's not an issue today, as tnkrdrvr said.

Thank you for your replies and info.
Does anyone maybe know how or where the airlines send their PRIA requests to? Is it via mail, or email, do they contact the contact in your app?
Who may expect to receive the request with your current employer? Anyone familiar with that?

I can tell you that every single pilot that was working on contract in Japan for the past 14 years have returned successfully to the US market. Majors, Freight, ACMI. They have been hired all over.
