FAQs

Below you will find specific questions about EASA Cabin Crew Program

Is it necessary to speak English to take the flight attendant course?

No, the course is conducted entirely in Spanish, as is the official AESA exam. However, from GTA we recommend it since it is an important requirement for many airlines when hiring.

The course has a total duration of 140 hours, which includes both theoretical and practical classes designed to provide comprehensive and hands-on training. For more specific information regarding the schedule, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We’ll be happy to assist you.

Currently the price of the TCP course in GTA Madrid is €2.200

No. The modality of the course is face-to-face, being mandatory to attend 90% of the theoretical classes and 100% of the practical classes.

There are no agreements to carry out internships in airlines, but occasionally we have agreements with different companies that select their cabin crew from among our students. After the course we inform all our students of all the open calls and we guide them on how to carry out a successful interview.

To renew the TCP certificate it is necessary to complete the initial cabin crew course in its entirety. Once you have passed the official exam, a new certificate will be issued with the same license number that you had on the first certificate issued.

There is no validation of licenses from another authority to the European one. It is necessary to complete the initial flight attendant course in full to qualify for an AESA certificate.

There are few schools that have their own flight and emergency simulators (in fact, we offer them for rent for many of them) this is what allows us to have much more competitive prices than the rest and what makes other centers are forced to make their courses more expensive.
