I don’t think any airline is hiring right now. Many pilots have been sadly fired

I have HEARD you can’t get a job with the airlines until 23. If this is true what can I do in the time between college and the airlines? I live in rural Mississippi if that helps.

Your age now isn’t important. What matters is your age when you actually apply to an airline for a pilot position.

Airlines need pilots because of the projected shortage of pilots. But airlines also want a pilot who will be around for a long time because the cost of special training for pilots is expensive. Airlines don’t want to hire someone who will have to retire in 10 to 15 years due to the FAA required retirement age of 65!

So my advice is to get your pilot hours built up as quickly as possible so you can apply for your first airline job and get your career started before you become too old to compete with all the other (younger) applicants!

If, at age 38 you’re just beginning flying lessons, there’s a good chance you may be too old to compete for an airline pilot job because of your age. By the time you receive the required pilot licenses for a commercial airline job, you may find that you’re too close to the mandatory retirement age of 65 for any airline to be interested in hiring you.

I’d love study to become a pilot. I have been fascinating about being a pilot. When I was 21 years old, I wanted to join the US Airforce and to become a pilot. But it didn’t happen due to I became pregnant with my older son and my husband came out the military.
