Do you offer accommodation?
Yes. Shared rooms at the base hostel for students on full time flying phases, from ₦180,000 a month, with meals and the morning bus included.
Are the fees fixed?
Fees are fixed per phase when you accept your offer, except fuel, which can be adjusted once a year with three months notice. All rates here are example rates.
