Interviews and simulator assessments will be held in the US and Europe.

To be considered for the position you need to register your different flight hours in your CV in Webcruiter under the section “Competence”. Please list all your flight hours as detailed as you can.

Applications can only be made through this website. Applications received via other sources (e.g. by phone, direct e-mail contact or through Norwegian employees) will not be accepted. Please note that due to the high volume of applications, reasons for unsuccessful applications will not be provided by Norwegian.

Equal opportunities principles will be applied throughout the process.
 
They'll have no problem filling the positions because people want to "leap frog" somewhere respectable.

"I've been flying CRJ's for a year and no major has made me an offer! Why stay when I can get international heavy time in a 78? Sure it pays less, fewer days off, poor QOL, and I'm submarining the industry; but I'm so much smarter than everyone else for this!"

Mom and dad can tell their friends I fly for a international airline now! Big planes! Overseas!

You guys pretty much nailed it.
 
I mean, I'm already an international jet Captain.

Detroit to Toronto also made guys four-engined-jet international captains.

But at least you'd live in Ft Lauderdale.

I hope it ruins careers domestically, similar to being a scab. You think NAI on your resume will help you get on with a major airline in the US? Guess what, you just dipped your balls in black ink, cause umm, you're blackballed....

Nah, it's just going to create more regional FOs that were hired to fly 777's then six months after IOE, they're already complaining on the internet about how "I've got international heavy jet experience and I don't know why UAL/DAL/FDX/UPS aren't calling!"

If I had a dime...
 
How is this any worse than China Southern having bases in the US? Part of deny NAI from ALPA was it "would put U.S. airlines and aviation workers at a tremendous disadvantage as they compete in the international marketplace". Now that they are employing Americans this changes things because they have to source pilots from the same pool the majors do.

Sure the pay and terms suck but is that the major beef with them now?

Where is China Southern's operating certificate based? Where do they fly?

Where is NAI's operating certificate based? Where do they fly?

This does address ONE of the issues brought up, but not the bigger problem.
