A lucky few were hired directly into widebody international (Anchorage based) by the Memphis cargo outfit. The degree is inconvenient and expensive but to get where you want to go you need it. There is no better time than the present. I was one of those lucky few and would not have even gotten the interview without it. Just saying.
