Thumbs up Greencard sponsors

Good morning Bafanguy, and Fourstripes

From what information I got I actually only need them for the ATP CTP. Dutch nationality.
Avelo is a nice airline if you value QOL. From my conversation with them that is what was told to me, an interview and possibly a job at Avelo.
But as Fourstripes correctly stated a part of it is probably marketing. Once you have your greencard you can head ANYWHERE. even with my limited experience (1900 hrs TT/F50 and 737).

I went to a job fair last September and my impression is that the following airlines are willing to look at foreigners. EB2-NIW to be specific.
1) Breeze
2) Allegiant
3) Avelo
4) Skywest (via Rishworth)\
5) Atlas Air

Also have a look at this database. Here you can find the companies who have sponsored greencards in the past years, and most importantly the legal teams that assisted in the process. Immihelp is the wbsite. I cannot post url yet so wiill do that later..

The H1b is more popular since they have a bit more control over you as a pilot....
