Hiya Ami,
Yea, I'm kinda leaning towards your take on this myself...
I lived and worked in the US for 5 different companies, in 4 states, for just over 5 years. Each time, getting a work visa (5 separate TN visas), was relatively simple. As I am in IT, a field that the US Gov and Industry feels doesn't have enough US workers for, the sponsoring companies simply had to provide me with a TN Visa Sponsorship Letter. That, my resume of qualifications, $50 bucks and 10 minues at the border, saw me legally able to live/work in the States.
I'm assuming that it will be the same case here. Whatever Airline I end up going with will provide the Visa letter, then most likely with the addition of the TSA review/approvals, the transition should be relatively painless, as the Airline indsutry is now suffering too for skilled pilots....
Hopefully
.
Cheers.
