Horizon has a flow-through to Qantas?
 
staylow,

With wages of up to 500k (sometimes more) a year tax free with emirates I don't think they need to go to the effort of recruiting in specific countries. and a large chunk of the guys they recruit are from the US. Same goes for Cathay Pacific.

Huh? Dirhams maybe, but not dollars. And that's for the most senior captains. You can see the pay scale at:

Good luck with your job search.
 
Sorry about your situation...doesn't change the fact you are not a citizen and you are coming over here to try and take job flying which could mean another person who is a citizen looses out. If the immigration process is way too much to go through you should stay in Australia.

Wow. You really put the "arrogant" in American.
 
stay low,

dude what makes you think that I am trying to TAKE jobs away from americans??

my (american) wife needs to come back to the US to finish up her degree so what do you suggest I do?? I'm a pilot and I fly planes why shouldn't I have a shot at it over there? it's up to the hiring panel of an airline to give me a job.

In future unless you have something productive to say just keep it to yourself. Pretty low to think I'm trying to pinch jobs from you guys I know how hard this industry can be and I wouldn't dream of sending another guy out on the street because of me. You've gotta do what you've gotta do.

By the way... the immigration process is way too much to go through just to chase work.

He's stealing our jobs AND our women!!!

I am also an Aussie working in the U.S. and 99% of the people here are great. Don't let a few morons like Staylow dissuade you. You only have to look at his spelling to get an idea of his intelligence level. Americans as a whole are very friendly and welcoming.
Now is a horrible time to try to find a job in the aviation industry so it is understandable that there will be some negativity directed at foreign nationals trying to gain employment here. It's similar to Australia in the early 90s after the strike when we had so many Americans and others flying in Australia, "stealing our jobs AND our women!!!"
 
That's the second time I've been accused of stealing american women!!

I've been told it has something to do with the way aussies dance ;).

I can't wait to come over. Hard times I know but an adventure all the same.
