Aspiring pilots will have a unique opportunity to take the first step toward the skies at an exclusive Pilot Training Seminar hosted by Atlantic Flight Training Academy (AFTA) in Dublin this August.

  • Venue: Radisson Blu Airport Hotel, Dublin
  • Date: Saturday, 16 August 2025
  • Time: 1:30 PM – 4:30 PM

This in-person event is designed for anyone dreaming of a career as a commercial pilot but unsure where to begin. Attendees will hear directly from Senior Flight Instructors at AFTA — one of Ireland’s most respected international flight schools — and gain valuable insights into the training journey ahead.

Key topics on the agenda include:

  • An in-depth look at AFTA’s Ryanair Future Flyer Programme Partnership
  • Details on AFTA’s exclusive partnerships with VistaJet and ASL Ireland
  • Guidance on Modular Training, Dual Licence Pathways, and CAA to EASA Conversions

From 3:00 PM to 4:30 PM, attendees will also have the chance to speak one-on-one with instructors, students, and admissions advisors, making it an ideal setting to ask questions and get expert advice tailored to their ambitions.

Whether you’re just beginning to explore aviation or actively researching flight schools, this seminar promises clarity, guidance, and inspiration. Spaces are limited, and interest is high — early registration is strongly recommended.
