But what makes you think European economy is in a better shape?
Europe is struggling with inflation, immigrant crisis, also stagnant economies, ecogreen agenda which is only pushing the aviation market down the drain...
Besides, salaries and benefits in Europe are lower compared to the US and there's a high probability of having to pay your initial type rating (since nowadays very few airlines are sponsoring their candidates initial training).
