wow, don't post rumors that Canadians can't fly for US Airliners...... I'm Canadian, with a job waiting for me at United. All you need is a job offer. The airline gives you a letter saying you have been hired, you then take that to the embassy, they then authorize you to work in the USA and give you a "crew member visa" specifically for Airline pilots and persons working on ships. So if you are Canadian you have a very good chance of being hired by US Airlines. Also the government is reducing the restrictions due to airlines having to close hubs, and shorten schedules now a day because of no pilots. If you are Canadian you CAN get hired. PS United hires Foreigners every day from around the world.
