PARIS, France, 2018-Oct-29 — /Travel PR News/ — Air France is launching its second cadet pilot recruitment campaign open until December 19. The company wishes to recruit and train around one hundred young pilots by 2020. The selected candidates will begin their training between June 2019 and January 2020, at one of three schools – the French National School of Civil Aviation in Toulouse (France), the EPAG flight school in Merville (France) and the L3 Airline Academy in Portugal.

After completing a 2-year training course, they will join the Group as Airbus A320 pilots for Air France and Boeing 737 pilots for Transavia.

Applications can now be submitted on the corporate.airfrance.com website.

The company had relaunched its cadet pilot program in January 2018 in response to its need to recruit 250 pilots per year, driven by natural departures and the growth in the Air France, Joon and Transavia fleet. Following an initial selection last spring, 110 young pilots have already been recruited and some have already begun their training.
