Skyborne Airline Academy is welcoming 40 new cadets to the IndiGo Cadet Pilot Program with Skyborne, after a Letter of Intent (LoI) ceremony in Gurgaon, India.
Following a competitive application process, the successful cadets will commence the first phase of their flight training at the academy’s base in Florida, United States, before returning to India for their flight license conversion and type rating. After successfully completing the program, the graduates will go on to fly with India’s leading airline as A320 First Officers.
Rina Basu, Regional Director (Asia Pacific), Skyborne, says: “Since Skyborne’s partnership with IndiGo began in 2019, we’ve supported India’s aviation industry in meeting workforce demand and tackling pilot shortages. Now, with our largest intake ever, we’re proud to continue supplying IndiGo with passionate and bright cadets who are committed to becoming highly skilled commercial pilots.”
Skyborne’s 2025 intake includes two former cabin crew for IndiGo and a strong female contingent, with 21% women cadets, well above the global average of 6%.
Applications for the IndiGo Cadet Pilot Program with Skyborne are open, with the next ADAPT test scheduled in July.
