Australia.
You do not need a degree to fly for the airlines in Australia.
Some airlines (eg Qantas) require HSC level physics and maths. (Bridging courses available)
You'll need a CPL + Multi Engine Instrument rating + ATPL subjects completed.
That's the minimum.

In reality you'll need an ATPL and ideally turbine hours with at least 500 hours in command on multi engine aircraft. Most get into the "airlines" in Australia with a couple of thousand hours.

However, the big thing you'll need is either an Australian (or NZ) passport or a VISA giving right to work and live.
