US-based and Europe-based airlines hire Filipino crew but they do not sponsor visa application. You either need to be a citizen of their country or hold a resident visa.

Hopefully, there will be more airlines hiring in 2024 including Etihad Airways and Japan Airlines as many are looking forward to apply for them.
