Our unique program is designed for Airbus experienced pilots joining Wizz Air directly on a commander contract and will undergo an extensive Command Upgrade Program before released as a Captain across our network. In case you would like to join our Flight Crew team as a type-rated Airbus A320/321 Captain, please see below the requirements for applying:
Notes:
*The type rating must have at least 6 months validity on the date of joining, as new candidates only complete an OPC on starting
**Factorized hours: Wizz Air applies factors to pilot flying hours to determine minimum requirements for Commanders. A pilot's hours flown in each category are multiplied by the applicable factor from the below table. The sum of all groups after factorization will be used to determine whether the pilot meets the minimum required experience.
*** Ultra-light aircraft, power gliders, simulator and helicopter hours are excluded. PIC hours are pilot in command hours. This does not include PICUS hours.
