Respectfully disagree. Only place that comes to mind is Atlas/Southern and you really don’t know what you’re in for if you decide to go work there. Go to one of the job fairs if you disagree and see the long lines of hopeful still aiming for a legacy job. My sort of Legacy airline I work for hires green card holders, but even that’s a stretch at most places.

By all means come over to a regional on an E3, do your time and try to somehow become a permanent resident but if your waiting for E3 floodgates at United, Delta, American I think you’ll be waiting a long time. Can’t even see it at the LCCs to be honest, even Frontier. Rightfully so. I’m a citizen and I’ve had my fare share of angst thrown at me for stealing American jobs.
