Vaccine (Covid) Required

Image
 The Covid-19 Pandemic has forever changed the face of our planet.  Its profound affect on the airline industry has lasting damage that will take years to recover.  Regardless of your stance or political opinions on the Covid-19 pandemic and the Covid-19 vaccine, airlines are taking no chances. Every airline requires applicants to be fully Covid-19 vaccinated.  From majors to regionals, you will be required to submit proof of vaccination.  Without such, you will not be extended an interview and/or complete the hiring process.  For those requiring boosters (per CDC guidance), you must have boosters as well. Pilots currently employed at an airline may not be subject to this mandate per their contract, but will be unable to gain other airline employment (for example, regional pilot wishing to apply to major’s) without the completed vaccine series. Additionally, they will be bared from certain (most) international flights as a requirement of the destination and re-entry to the USA.
