"This new training center in Rome is a sign of Wizz Air's continued commitment to investing in the future of aviation and its employees. Our pilots are at the heart of the company's operations; this facility will ensure that they receive the most advanced and rigorous continuing education possible. Italy represents one of Wizz Air's key markets, where we already have five bases and more than 20 state-of-the-art aircraft: this investment therefore further consolidates our longstanding presence in the Region", commented Jozsef Varadi, CEO of Wizz Air.
The new pilot training center, located a short walk from Fiumicino airport's Terminal 1, covers an area of more than 2,500 square meters and consists of briefing rooms, theoretical training spaces and a room equipped with two CAE flight simulators for Airbus A320s complete; a third simulator, then, will be installed in 2025.
These simulators feature high-fidelity visuals, an environment of immersive cockpit and realistic flight dynamics, and will allow more than 4,800 pilots to undergo continuing education each year.
