How can I become a Pilot as a Lebanese Expat living in Saudi Arabia?
i am 25 years old, and already have a career in banking which I am growing out of. I have always wanted to become a pilot. Is it too late?
if not, would appreciate if someone could share with me some steps and options (easy, difficult, best course etc.) also, any info on salaries in Saudi would be much appreciated. Thank you |

Expect at least 10 years as an FO before being eligible for upgrade to Captain. |
Flight training in KSA is extremely expensive and basically the government wants all new first officers to be Saudi nationals. So realistically there isn’t an aviation future for you in KSA.

It is not too late you are quite still young. Some People have started in their thirties. There is alpha aviation academy in Sharjah connected to air Arabia taking from zero to a job with them.
Maybe Wizzair to be based later on in Abu Dhabi BAA training maybe they have also connection with some eastern EUROPEAN airlines… Otherwise you can pay Pilot training and get your licenses (in EUROP for Easa, Jordan aviation in Jordan etc….). Once you have your licenses you can apply for the first job (which is the hardest part…) |
