Commercial aviation is a competitive industry. To gain employment with an airline or charter operator in the international aviation market you must have high quality training and skills and you will need to demonstrate high fluency in English because the job will involve holding English conversations with other cabin crew, pilots, engineers and ground crew, air traffic controllers and passengers from all over the world. Training in Australia with Australian instructors and staying in a homestay with an Australian family will boost your English fluency and give you a great advantage over flight attendants training in other countries where people may speak English as their second or third language or may not speak English at all. Indeed many airlines prefer to recruit cabin crew trained in English speaking countries like Australia and New Zealand. WHY BRISBANE? Aviation Australia College at Brisbane Airport has the finest cabin crew training facilities available in the southern hemisphere including

And due to spending only 3 months in Australia for the program you will be able to travel on a simple visitor visa instead of a complicated and costly student visa. WHAT DOES IT COST? WHO WILL PAY?

Applicants for Aircrew Australia’s cabin crew program must be prepared to find their own fees with the help of family, friends and fundraising activities unless they can secure a sponsor. If your application for our flight attendant training program is successful we will actively assist you to apply for sponsorship from the above sources. However there will never be enough sponsors to fund all the applicants we select, so those applicants who apply early are more likely to obtain sponsorship and those who are unsuccessful with sponsorship will have to find their own fees.
