This World Pilot’s Day easyJet has announced that it has reopened its Generation easyJet Pilot Training programme for the 2023 intake of approximately 200 aspiring pilots. The Generation easyJet Pilot Training Programme is delivered in partnership with CAE and provides aspiring airline pilots with training to become qualified commercial airline pilots in around two years.
Ground training is delivered at CAE’s European aviation academy locations in Gatwick, Milan, Brussels, or Madrid, and flight training at CAE Phoenix in the USA. Upon successful completion of the programme, graduates begin their careers flying as a Second Officer with easyJet.
A cohort of cadet pilots selected when the programme re-opened in January 2022 is already in training. Applications are now being accepted for programmes beginning in December 2023 and graduating in 2026.
