I was about to mention that.
What do you consider the Majors?
Delta/United/American Airlines?
Despite the fact that a green card is supposed to give you the same employment opportunities I refuse to believe that. Certain Airlines, including some of the Majors definitely “prefer” US Citizens although that will never be said out loud. You’ll just never know why you’ve not been hired/selected.
Some outright require a US Passport because of background requirements for a security clearance you need because. FedEx and UPS.
Not to mention people are lined up around the block to work for those 5 companies.
You may want to take a look at a company like Atlas or Kalitta.
