Our pilot training facility and programs in Greece are operated in partnership with Cretan eagle academy, Reference EL.ATO.133, and is located in Nikos Kazantzakis International Airport. Ground school is conducted at a facility near the students accommodation, which is conveniently situated close to student accommodations and other student services.
We operate a full fleet of Diamond aircraft in Greece, providing students with access to industry-leading training platforms. Our fleet includes both the Diamond DA40 for single-engine operations and the Diamond DA42 for twin-engine training—offering a complete range of flight experience.
This advanced fleet is supported by our AI Sim ALX simulator, which allows students to practice complex procedures and emergency scenarios in a safe, immersive environment. Together, our aircraft and simulator provide a comprehensive and modern training experience, fully aligned with today’s aviation standards and operational demands.
Nikos Kazantzakis International Airport is the second busiest airport in Greece, located in Heraklion, Crete. The airport features two runways (27/09, 30/12) and all necessary infrastructure for our training operations. During winter, traffic is minimal, creating an ideal environment for student pilots to train in a professional setting. The airport's facilities and strategic location make it perfect for comprehensive flight training.
Crete is a small universe teeming with beauties and treasures that would take a lifetime to fully explore. The island offers something for everyone year-round: during winter, you can visit snow-covered mountainous areas, while summer brings beautiful beaches and coastal destinations, all conveniently close to Crete's largest cities. Visitors can admire remnants of brilliant civilizations, explore glorious beaches, impressive mountain landscapes, fertile valleys, and steep gorges. The island also offers a rich gastronomic culture for students to enjoy during their training.
We offer convenient accommodation in dormitories located next to the airport, providing students with easy access to training facilities. Our dormitory housing ensures students can focus on their training without worrying about long commutes or finding suitable living arrangements.
