  1. No way will any airline pay for your training, assuming you're a US citizen.  The supply of trained pilots is already way too high for US airlines to justify the expense.  Your only chance at getting free training is to join the military.

    In other countries, airlines sometimes have "cadet pilot" programs, where you sign a contract and they pay for your training.  However, in these countries, pilots are in short supply, so the airline has to do this in order to fill pilot positions.  This is not a problem in the US though, so the military remains your only realistic route.


  2. Yes, try Southwest or American Air. They are the most flexable

  3. I don't know what your degree is, but I'm assuming it's probably not a background in aero engineering etc.

    I think the only way is to get a loan and try to work part time to pay it off.

    If it is a degree relating to aeronautics, then you should be able to get a job with paid training, though it probably wont be the jumbo jets.
