When will airlines start requiring 1500 hrs?
#14
250 hr. of flight time as PIC of an airplane, or as SIC performing the duties and functions of a PIC under the supervision of a PIC, or by any combination of the two. This requirement must include
1. 100 hr. of cross-country time
2. 25 hr. of night flight time
1. 100 hr. of cross-country time
2. 25 hr. of night flight time

but then that goes into the argument on another post about how hard it would be to NOT have 250 PIC. Unless part 141 etc. Even if you were part 141, go freaking rent a 152 for 50 hours or so over the next few years before the rule kicks in.

There are work-arounds for both requirements, the ICAO one is easy but the FAA one would need the cooperation of your airline.
#19
Sec. 217. AIRLINE TRANSPORT PILOT CERTIFICATION.
(c) Flight Hours-
(1) NUMBERS OF FLIGHT HOURS- The total flight hours required by the Administrator under subsection (b)(1) shall be at least 1,500 flight hours.
