Does anyone know if there are restrictions for Aussies being upgraded to Capt at all? I vaguely recall reading somewhere that Aussies may be held back or restricted in some way. I presume not, however would like to hear it from someone with a level of insight.
I’m an Aussie working at Envoy (green card not E3). The union put the kybosh on E3’s at Envoy, I would have cleaned up on internal referrals otherwise.
No restrictions on upgrades for E3’s elsewhere that I’ve heard of at all. Perhaps you might be confusing the fact that Aussies on E3’s can’t flow through to mainline on the flow agreements with wholly owned airlines. Reason being even though the flow through is contractual, technically you’re starting with a new employer which requires a new E3 visa. No major is putting on or has the need for any E3 visa holders in the US.
