Carrier Aegean and civil aviation training organisation CAE have formed a joint venture to establish the first advanced flight training center in Greece.
The proposed Aegean CAE Flight Training Centre will be part of the airline's new technical base at Athens International Airport, where pilot and cabin crew training are to start by the end of 2023 with four full-flight simulators, including two Airbus A320neo, one Boeing
737NG, and one ATR 72-600, as well as cabin crew training equipment.
"It is with great pride that I announce this significant partnership with CAE, the global leader in civil aviation training, to establish the first aviation ecosystem for flight training and technical support services in Greece," said Dimitris Gerogiannis, the airline's chief executive.
